The City of Davison overlay design district is recommended in order to meet the following:
(a) Preserve the small-town, unique character of the City of Davison.
(b) Complement the existing pattern of architecture of buildings. Development should rely on found character, not imported character. Structures should be designed and developed or redeveloped to complement architecture, mass and bulk in the area surrounding it.
(c) Enhance the pedestrian orientation of the Davison community and encourage streetscape design that is inviting and on a human scale as well as insuring consistent pedestrian connections throughout the City.
(d) Communicate the community's vision for the City and its downtown area and ensure pending developments comply with these guidelines while specific and detailed guidelines are created.
