(A) A request for rezoning to the TID district may be approved by the City Council subject to §§ 153.315, 153.316 and 153.127 and only after having first been reviewed by the Planning Board. A transitional infill development (TID) is a type of TND that is characterized by smaller project areas and higher density, innovative development. In addition, a TID contains residential uses only. The project size of a TID shall be up to ten acres in area and shall contain at least three dwelling units.
(B) The Planning Board shall consider the request only after a completed application has been submitted to the Administrator. (Note: Prior to submission of the site plan and application, and prior to any disturbance of any land or vegetation it is recommended that the applicant consult with the Administrator or his or her designee in order for the applicant to be briefed on the requirements of this chapter and that consideration be given to natural features of the site.)
(C) A TID may be established only on parcels that meet all of the following criteria. A A TID district is similar to a TND district, as established in § 153.125, except that the following principles may not apply to all TIDs:
(1) Neighborhood centers shall not be required in a TID;
(2) TIDs need not be planned to connect with neighboring developments (whether existing or planned);
(3) TIDs need not contain a mixture of housing types; and
(4) Common open space may not be required in smaller-sized TIDs.
(D) Additional criteria for TIDs.
(1) Front-loaded garages of any structure shall not be placed side by side and shall be recessed a minimum of five feet from the street side façade.
(2) Otherwise, setback and yard regulations for a TID shall be as follows.
