SECTION 6 - DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
A. Mixed-Use Design Guidelines: Overview
This section provides general design guidelines that apply to Mixed-Use Character. A key
principle established in the framework is that improvements should help achieve specific design
character goals. In this regard,one basic design character is reflected while accommodating
mixed uses.
Mixed-Use areas are developed within commercial services and residential units. Residential
uses shall be combined with these new commercial functions,to create a mixed-use context.
Objectives far Mixed-Use Design Guidelines:
• To maintain a sense of connection with the Creek, and the history of the area,while
accommodating development with a mix of commercial and residential uses.
• To minimize the visual impacts of automobiles.
• To enhance pedestrian activity.
• To minimize environmental impact on the Creeks natural edges.
B. Site Design
1. Maintain the alignment and spacing patterns of buildings as seen along the block.
2. Maintain a sense of semi-public space in the front setback. A minimum of 50%of the
area of the front setback shall be ground cover or low planting. Paved surfaces may be used
for a courtyard. Porous paving materials are preferred. A courtyard in a mixed-use area
should reflect the design motif of the Center while accommodating appropriate functional
requirements. Handicap ramps shall be integrated with the landscape and architecture to
minimize their visual presence.
3. Park dedication shall be done in such a way to mazimize the enhanced park value along
the corridor and create a"seamless"connection with the mized-use development.
4. Sites located adjacent to the Creek must dedicate all lands located within the floodway
and appropriate additional flood plain lands for the continuity of the Miged-Use Center
Park System. It is a priority that the connectivity of the Mixed-Use Center be maintained to
the continuous open space land along Clear Creek.
5. A minimum of twenty feet of the flood plain adjacent to the floodway is desired to be
dedicated as park land. In areas were the floodway is not deemed accessible,a Hike&
Bike corridor must be given to the Mixed-Use Center to maintain connectivity along the
Creek.
6. Sites adjacent to the Open Space land along Clear Creek shall provide at least one
means of public access through the site to the Open Space Lands.
7. Provide pedestrian interest at the street level,protect pedestrian access,and enhance
the pedestrian experience.
8. Orient the front of the building to the street. All structures should have one primary entry
that faces the street ar pedestrian plaza. Additional entrances may be located to the side or
rear. Structures that face or back against the Creek shall provide a entry feature on the Creek
6
Friendswood Mixed-Use Cenier on NASA Parkway Revision Date: 9�27/2005
side and be architecturally attractive from the park. Multi-unit structures should be street
oriented.
9. Enhance and Protect the Pedestrian Ezperience. Where identified by the City Manager or
designee, sites that should have Hike and Bike Access must create and develop this access.
Site furnishings shall be provided along public and semi-public access routes or courtyards.
Window awnings on the first floor shall provide real shade projections of 8 to 10 feet along
pedestrian paths. Covered parches and structures along the pedestrian linkages are preferred.
Pedestrian scale signage along with windows placed and sized for window shopping must be
provided. Additionally,benches must be placed in groups of at least two and shaded in order
to provide conversation areas. Through building linkages between front street and rear Creek
access is required. Creek fronting buildings must provide pedestrian plazas,porches,
lookouts or other design features. Structures that face or back against the Central Pedestrian
Plaza shall provide an entry feature on the parking and plaza side. Through building access
shall also be provided between the Central Pedestrian Plaza and main parking areas.
10. Design and locate new driveways,parlcing areas,and utilities in a way that minimizes
their visual impact.
11. Access parking from an alley where feasible,and maintain traditional parking patterns.
For a lot on an alley, locate parking in a parking garage, parking lot or carport that is located
near the alley edge and accessed from the alley. For a lot not accessible from an alley, locate
parking to the rear of the lot with a driveway accessed from the street. Tandem(front to
back)parking in a driveway is acceptable.
12. Minimize visual impact of parking areas. Parking garages should be designed to blend in
with adjacent facades and building masses. Parking garages should not be oriented toward
park views,or pedestrian access. Parking garage facades should be broken up to deter from
visual horizontal bands that identify parking garages, additionally parking garages should not
allow the cars within to be seen from the street. On grade parking should be designed to
minimize visual and pedestrian impact. Where parking areas abut; streets, parks,plazas or
pedestrian access, a minimum continuous 3 foot tall hedge shall be installed and mature at
time of installation. Additionally preferred trees shall be planted no less then 40 feet on
center along the perimeter of the parking area. Center island parking shall provide trees at
each end of the parking island and at least one tree per every linear 10 parking spaces, in an
intermediate planted island.

*Consideration may be given toward allowing exception to parking requirements for new
structures in order to preserve a feature of public significance, such as a landmark tree, a
historic hedge, a design feature, a public feature, pedestrian access, or an exterior art feature,
etc. Off site parking shall be allowed with the approval of the City Manager or designee may
be located in a concurrently constructed parking facility within the five minute walk(1250')
of the facility requesting the off-site parking. "Shared parking"with off-peak users is
encouraged and may reduce parking ratios, with the approval of the City Manager or
designee. The Manager or designee may allow twenty percent deviation for any specific
parking requirement with the following guidelines;
Guidelines:
Shared parking. "Shared parking"means that multiple uses share one or more parking
facilities. Parking demands MUST"peak"during different times of the day.
Credit for on-street parking. The amount of required off-street parking shall be reduced
by one off-street parking space for every on-street parking space adjacent to the
development.
Reduce or waive minimum off-street parking standards. The applicant may request a
reduction to or waiver of parking standards based on a parking impact study. The study
allows the applicant to propose a reduced parking standard based on estimated peak use,
reductions due to easy pedestrian accessibility, availability of transit service, likelihood
of car pool use, and adjacent on-street parking. The parking study is subject to review
and approval or modification by the City Manager or designee.
Maximum parking ratio. Surface parking shall not exceed 110%of the minimum parking
requirement for the subject land use(s). Exemptions to the standard can be approved by
the City Manager or designee through site/design review for developments that provide
parking structures, shared parking,valet parking spaces, market rate parking, or similarly
managed parking facilities.
8
Friendswood Mixed-Use Center on NASA Parkway Revision Date: 9/27/2005
14. Locate mechanical equipment and service areas out of public view. Loading/service
areas including refuse/recycling enclosures should be located out of public view. Electrical
and communication transformers/cabinets located in the city right-of way must be install
below grade in the right-of-way or located on-site and screened from public view. Backflow
prevention/anti-siphon valves must be integrated into the building design and concealed from
public view. Such devices may not be located within the right-of-way on primary pedestrian
streets. All other mechanical equipment must be located behind or on top of building and
screened from public view with parapet walls, landscaping, etc. All electric/phone/data:
primary, secondary and drops shall be located below grade—exception would be majar trunk
lines deemed infeasible to bury.
15. Building Setbacks
1 � �
Mixed Use Sites 10' 0' 0' 15'
Mixed Use Sites Adjacent Blackhawk ROW 20' 0' 0' 15'
Other Sites 20' S' 10' 15'
The City planner may allow a 20%deviation in any of the required set back requirements per
project and or structure(s)specifically.
* Any building that is less then 5' from any property line must conform to all required fire rated
construction.
C. Building Mass and Scale
1. Maintain the scale of a new structure within the context of existing buildings,or the
"Architectural Styles"in Section F of this document.
2. Design a front elevation to be similar in scale to those seen traditionally within a
traditional main street and miged-use areas. The primary plane of the front should not
appear to be taller than those of typical structures in the center,exception would be first
building. The rear portion of the building may be taller than the front and still appear in
scale.A new multi-unit structure should not overwhelm existing structures in height. Sites
will be developed so that pre-determined"skylines"can be created that become"signature"
architectural elements that identify Friendswood.
3. Features and Towers may exceed standard building height where the feature adds to
the aesthetics of the area. Entry features and towers may exceed building heights of other
buildings in the center,but they must read as either a feature or a tower. Towers shall not
obviously serve as advertisement or for corporate logos, unless specifically approved by the
City Manager or designee.
4. The primary building face should not ezceed the width of typical buildings in the area
or in a similar contezt. A single wall plane should not exceed the maximum fa�ade width of
a typical building in the appropriate center, or the building style described. If a building is
wider overall than those seen typically, divide the large fa�ade into subordinate wall planes
that have dimensions similar to those of traditional buildings in the appropriate center. The
largest maximum fa�ade width shall not exceed 60' until a standard is established for the
center.
9
Friendswood Mixed-Use Center on NASA Parkway Revision Date: 9�27/2005
5. Break up the perceived mass of a building by dividing the building front into"modules"
or into separate structures that are similar in size to buildings seen traditionally in the
appropriate center. Use a ratio of solid to void(wall to window)as seen from the public
that is found in traditional structures in the"Architectural Styles" in Section F of this
document. Dividing the total building mass into separate structures ar facades is required.
6. Corporate buildings and building signage is discouraged. Building forms, facades, and
building graphics which clearly indicate a corporate storefront shall not be allowed, unless
specifically approved by the City Manager or designee. Awnings, graphics,materials,mass,
roof forms,rooflines, entrances, architectural features, entries, and style shall conform to that
established within the"Architectural Styles" in Section F of this document.
D. Building Form and Rooflines
1. Sloping or flat roof forms shall predominate in each center per tradition. The primary
roof of any structure in a sloping roofed area should be hip or gable. Larger developments
may include a mix of room forms including horizontal or flat. Roof mounted mechanical
equipment must be screened from view. Buildings should not face gable ends toward street
unless in the form of an entry feature or tower.
2. Use building forms that are similar to those seen traditionally. Simple rectangular solids
are typically appropriate. Raised foundations are preferred. "Exotic"building and roof forms
that would detract from the visual continuity of the streetscape are not allowed,but variety
and interesting buildings are desired.
E. Building Entrances
1. Clearly identify the primary entrance to a building and orient it to the street. All
structures should have one primary entry that faces the street. Additional entrances may be
located to the side or rear. Multi-unit structures should be street, Central Pedestrian Plaza,
and or creek oriented. Sites with access to the linear park should also have clearly identified
rear entrances to the building entering into a common space with the front entry.
2. Clearly de�ne the primary entrance by using a entry feature. Orient the design feature to
the street. The entry feature should be functional, in that it is used as a means of access to the
entry. An open porch is preferred. The minimum depth for a useable front porch is typically
8-10 feet. Entry features must be covered and generously sized to provide a transition area.
3. Separate the entry wallcway from the driveway. The walkway to the main entrance must
be separate from the driveway. Different; colored,or materials paving treatments are
required to enhance the entry.
F. Architectural Features
1. Use architectural features that add visual interest to the street or park.
2. Use porches,awnings,balconies,bay windows,generous landscaping and plazas to
provide visual interest and human scale to a building. Balconies,porches, bay windows
may encroach into the area between the build-to-line and the front property line. Porches and
balconies shall be required for a minimum of 40%of the built street frontage. Porches shall
10
Friendswoad Mixed-Use Center on NASA Parkway Revision Date: 9�27�2005
be constructed with a depth of between 8 and 10 feet. Balconies shall be 3 feet deep. A
second story balcony is required and shall extend along 50%of the street frontage. On corner
lots,the side of the structure shall be designed to resemble the front of the structure. Such
elements should be similar in form and scale to those found traditionally within the
appropriate center. Exception to balcony rule would be big box retail sites.
3. Building Details that maintain the character of the area are encouraged. Simple
ornamental trim and decoration is appropriate. Consider using porches,eaves, corner
boards and brackets as part of the design of a new building. Traditional locations for
decorative elements are porches and eaves.
4. Repeat the patterns created by similar shapes and sizes of traditional building features.
Windows,porches and eaves are among the elements typically seen to align and create
patterns within a center.
5. Glazing and fenestration to follow traditional standards. Large modern panels of glass
are discouraged. Interior glazed mullions are not allowed. Glazing,tinting or fenestration is
not allowed that is obviously viewed as modern or contemporary.
6. Texas Gulf Coast Regionalism is considered the most appropriate design theme.
Architectural Design for all buildings within the Master Plan will relate to one another in
basic design theme as approved by the Developer's Architectural Review Committee. This is
intended to be a"broad stroke"coordination of all buildings within a"general"theme,which
reflects Texas historical buildings on the Gulf Coast concerned with climate and local
materials. Each building,or group of buildings within the project,will have a different
interpretation of the established theme to provide complexity and interest. Where practical,
the theme will be reflected in the following general elements: awnings,windows, doors,
metalwork,brick and stonework,massing,roof lines, scale, height, materials, signage,
lighting and fenestration. Texas Gulf Coast Regionalism shall be reflected in the following
specific features on all buildings:
a. Deep roof and porch overhangs.
b. Metal roofs with indigenous Texas stone, limestone and brick
c. Deep covered walks on the first level of all buildings.
7. Buildings located adjacent to the linear park,Central Pedestrian Plaza,or the Creek
must create rear facades equal in importance and quality as those found on the street.
Although not to be designed exactly like front facades,buildings located along the creek or
linear park should have rear facades that take into account view corridors, sun screening,
design features and plazas to maximize the natural setting and beauty.
G. Building Materials and Colors
1. Use high quality exterior finish materials. Wood or cement fiber lap siding, brick, stone
and stucco are all appropriate building materials. Innovative or"green"materials are
encouraged provided they appear similar in quality,texture, finish and dimension to those
, traditionally in the appropriate center. Stucco must be detailed to create a composition of
smaller wall surfaces and establish a sense of human scale.
2. Simple material finishes are encouraged. Matte finishes are preferred. Polished stone and
ceramic tile for example,may be used but must be limited to accent elements.
3. Building colors should evoke a sense of richness and liveliness to complement and
support the overall character of the mixed-use districts.
11
Friendswoad Mixed-Use Center on NASA Parkway Revision Date: 9/27/2005
H. Signage
1. Design buildings with careful consideration for the incorporation of signage.
3. Three Types of signage are allowed.
a. Standard Monument signs. Monument signs may not exceed seven feet in height and
must comply in size restrictions currently imposed by the City of Friendswood Sign
Ordinance. Pole signage is not acceptable.
b. Building Signage. Building signage is allowed and must conform to the current City
Signage Restrictions.
c. Pedestrian Signage. Eye level pedestrian signage is required. Provide adequate graphics
to allow people to navigate the site without confusion.
d. Gateway signage is allowed at high traffic locations for project"branding", graphics and
to add"liveliness"to the project in the form of structure, gateway, or graphics. Gateway
signage may not be used to promote individual or groups of businesses specifically.
4. Any feature or graphic incorporated into a building or structures design which can be
construed as a corporate logo will be treated as a SIGN and sized accordingly,with the
ezception of the"Big Box"retail sites.
5. Interior or Glazing Graphics and Advertising. Graphics incorporated into glazing must be
etched no color is allowed. Interior signage displayed within 8 feet parallel to exterior
glazing may not exceed in size 50% of the glazing size nor may it exceed 15 square feet per
business.
6. Banner Signage,or Banner Flags,and any other form of attached materials to a
business are only allowed under special circumstances. Any Banners per site must
comply with the City of Friendswood Sign Ordinance. Banner flags on a building may be
allowed if the graphic or color is generic or adds"liveliness"to the project.
7. Banner Signage,or Banner Flags,and any other form of attached materials to a Center,
light poles,across pedestrian streets,etc.that are for creating center wide atmosphere
are allowed. The Banners, Flags etc.must; add liveliness to the center,or contain center
graphics, or promote a center wide festival or event. Never shall the Center Banner program
be used to promote a single business or groups of businesses. Examples would be graphic
flags attached to light standards or banners strung across pedestrian plazas, or walkways,
announcing center wide festivals, or events.
I. Lighting
1. Design buildings with careful consideration for the incorporation of lighting. All
lighting must conform to the City of Friendswood Lighting Ordinance.
2. New buildings and additions should be designed to allow for lighting appropriately
sized,constructed,and placed to fit within the center.
3. The Color Spectrum of ezterior lighting must be appropriate for the center. Metal
Halide and Low Pressure Sodium lighting are preferred. Fluorescent or incandescent exterior
lighting may me used but MUST fall within the color characteristics between Metal Halide
and Low Pressure Sodium.
4. Any new structure or building which is neither of community nor of civic importance
may not over light in such a way to detract from neighboring buildings or facilities. All
12
Friendswood Mixed-Use Center on NASA Parkway Revision Dute: 4�27�2005
site design schemes will provide lighting calculations in order to compare lumen ratios to
adjacent development. Lighting deemed excessive will not be allowed.
5. Exterior building lighting should be used to accentuate the building design and not
detract from the character of the center. Highlight architectural details and features with
lighting integrated into the building design. Fa�ade lighting should provide for a sense of
vibrancy and safety without resulting in excessive light and glare. Innovative use of lighting
is encouraged. Commercial looking"wall packs"may only be used in areas not publicly
visible, for security purposes. Energy conservation and efficiency should also be considered.
Exterior pole mounted lighting should reflect the"project standard"to be determined by the
project consultant. Tree up-lighting is encouraged and desired.
6. All lighting must be installed in such a manner to provide necessary security for
pedestrians while at the same time enhancing the pedestrian experience. Excessive
glare, and unshielded below eye level or eye level lighting is not acceptable.
7. All lighting schemes must be submitted with lumen,type,and color specification to be
reviewed and approved prior to construction. Any derivation in lamping after
construction must be submitted and approved by the project design consultant.
J. Outdoor Spaces
1. Design outdoor spaces to enliven the street edge,the natural surroundings,and provide
for pedestrian interest. The City Manager or designee may allow deviation of the following
requirements up to 15%per each case.
2. A variety of outdoor spaces may be considered. A grassy front lawn as typically seen in
the area. A courtyard in front of an adaptive use project is encouraged. A interior couriyard
with major entrance clearly visible form the street or pedestrian trail. Natural landscaping
adjacent to the open spaces along Clear Creek.
3. Courtyards are encouraged as places for outdoor activities. A courtyard in a mixed-use
area should reflect a residential/urban tradition in scale and context while accommodating
functional requirements. Public or private art is encouraged to be incorporated into an entry
courtyard. Environmental conditions such as sun, shade, and prevailing winds,must be
considered and justified when positioning a plaza or courtyard. Courtyard and entry paving
should contrast with the driveway paving and be physically separated.
4. Along the pedestrian trials traversing a site,provide plantings to enhance the
pedestrian's experience. This includes shade trees, and appropriate sight and sound
buffering plants.
5. Maintain the visibility of the structure from the street. Plant low ground cover,turf, and
shrubs within the front setback. Where provided, front yard fencing should not be greater
than 42"and be either wrought iron, or aluminum,to maintain the sense of openness of the
semi-public space.
6. Provide appropriate irrigation to all new plantings per current city ordinance.
7. The site design of a new building or large addition should take into consideration
eacisting mature trees. In the event of a lot merger or large addition,preserve mature trees to
the extent feasible. When at all feasible, locate a new structure outside the drip line of an
existing tree. Protect root systems of existing trees by fencing priar to construction. To the
greatest extent avoid trenching or soil compaction within the drip line. Large Trees may be
relocated on the site with a tree spade.
