Description Open Space District - The Open Space District is provided to encourage the development of compact neighborhoods and rural compounds that set aside significant natural vistas and landscape features (rural heritage features) for permanent conservation. Density of development is regulated on a sliding scale; permitted densities rise with increased open space preservation. Development typologies associated with the Open Space District are farms, the single house, the farmhouse cluster, the residential neighborhood, and the mixed-use Traditional Neighborhood Development, available as an overlay district. The Huntersville Land Development Plan shows the general location of major open space areas to be preserved.

Density of development is regulated on a sliding scale; permitted densities rise with increased open space preservation. Development typologies associated with the Open Space District are farms, the single house, the farmhouse cluster, the residential neighborhood, and the mixed-use Traditional Neighborhood Development, available as an overlay district. The Huntersville Land Development Plan shows the general location of major open space areas to be preserved. The Traditional Neighborhood Development overlay District is provided for the development of new neighborhoods and the revitalization or extension of existing neighborhoods, which are structured upon a fine network of interconnecting pedestrian oriented streets and other piblic spaces. TND's offer a mixture of housing types and prices, prominently sited civic or community building(s), and stores/offices/workplaces to provide a balanced mix of activities. A TND has a recognizable center and clearly defined edges; optimum size is a quarter mile from center to edge. The TND Overlay District can be applied in the Open Space District on a site of 65 acres or more.

This district also provides for town-scaled residential development within walking distance (generally 1/2 mile) of satellite village centers, identified on the Land Deveopment Plan. Streets in the Neighborhood Residential District must be interconnected, according to Article 5, Streets, and Urban Open Space provided according to Article 7. A range of housing types is encouraged. Low-intensity business activity is permitted in mixed-use buildings at residential scale, according to locational criteria. The intensity to which permitted uses may be built is regulated by the building type which corresponds to the use.

Value TC
Description Town Center District - The Town Center District provides for revitalization, reuse, and infill development in Huntersville's traditional town center. A broad array of uses is expected in a patten whice integrates shops, restaurants, services, work places, civic, educational, and religious facilities, and higher density housing in a compact, pedestrian-oriented environment. The Town Center anchors the surrounding residential neighborhoods while also serving the broader community. The district is coded to accomodate the higher overall intensity of development required to support a rail transit station. It is to be expected that the Town Center District will be expanded over time through the zoning change process to an approximate one half mile radius to meet growth in demand for downtown facilities and services.

Value HC
Description Highway Commercial District - The Highway Commercial District is established to provide primarily for auto-dependent uses in areas not amenable to easy pedestrian access and a comfortable pedestrian environment. It is expected that the Highway Commercial District will serve not only the Huntersville Community, but interstate travelers as well. Because of the scale and access requirements of uses in this category, they often cannot be compatibly integrated within the Town Center or Neighborhood Center Districts. Development at district boundaries must provide a compatible transition to uses outside the district; property boundaries adjacent to freeways or expressways will require a fifty foot foliated buffer yard; and frontages on major or minor arterials will require formal street tree planting.

Description Campus Institutional District - The Campus Institutional District is established to provide for large institutional complexes which are already in place and for new institutional complexes on 15 acres or more which, because of the scale of the buildings or the nature of the use, cannot be fully integrated into the fabric of the community.

Campus districts are intended primarily for existing institutions, as most new institutional projects can and should be designed within the fabric of the town.

Individual workplace buildings oriented to the street and scaled for compatibility with the surrounding environment are also permitted in the HC District and, on a smaller scale, in the TC, NC, and TND-O Districts. Such workplaces should not be reclassified to the CB District. The CB District is reserved for uses which require very large buildings and/or large parking and loading facilities such as warehouse/distribution operations.

Value SP
Description Special Purpose District - The Special Purpose District is established to accomodate uses that may constitute health or safety hazards, have greater than average impacts on the environment, or diminish the use and enjoyment of nearby property by generation of noise, smoke, fumes, odors, glare, commercial vehicle traffic, or similar nuisances. Because uses permitted in the SP District vary as to their impacts on the community, thay may likewise vary as to the effective mitigating conditions. Therefore the SP District exists as a General Zoning District but will frequently benefit from application as a Parallel Conditional Use District.
