1119.02 OVERLAY DISTRICTS.

   The City’s zoning districts may be further defined through restrictions imposed by one or more of the following Overlay Districts:

   (a)   “MOD” Medical Overlay District. The Medical Overlay District promotes medical and related uses associated with a primary care point such as a hospital. The district allows for a mix of uses supporting the primary care point while protecting the property in the vicinity from more intrusive uses allowable in other use districts.

   (b)   “ROD” Riparian Overlay District. Setbacks along watercourses, including rivers, streams, major and minor tributaries to serve as buffer areas. The District is prepared and adopted in preparation of the Flood Mitigation effort underway to minimize or reduce flooding of the Blanchard River and its tributaries. Once the mitigation effort is complete, the overlay district shall be designated on the zoning map. One example would be seventy-five feet (75’) setbacks both sides of the Blanchard River and twenty-five feet (25’) both sides of Eagle Creek.

   (c)   “UOD” University Overlay District. The University Overlay District promotes educational and related uses associated with secondary education institutions such as a university or community college. The Overlay District permits educational institutions and their accessory uses, as well as a variety of local commercial uses typically associated with and nearby a university or college, to enhance the campus existence but protect the area from more intrusive uses allowable in commercial districts.
