PRIMARY TYPOLOGY OVERVIEW The Primary Station Typologies for the FCCR between the City of Jacksonville and St. Augustine are based on the City of Jacksonville zoning code. They are high-level descriptions and are meant to provide density and development goals based on the location of the site and the characteristics of the surrounding community and abutting neighborhoods. The plan identifies that station areas a half-mile radius that will service as an aspirational area for TOD development and infrastructure improvements. Goals for each list Primary Station Typology are found in the sections below: » Urban Center

URBAN CENTER Zoning Code Definition : The Urban Center Typology is in the most heavily urbanized areas, and its infrastructure shall include a dense grid block structure street design and high vertical development to support a high diversity of uses, high residential and employment densities, and greater volume of pedestrian activity. Modes of transportation should include a premium transit service, such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), rail, and/or the Skyway/Ultimate Urban Circulator (U²C), or a mix of local or express bus services, and alternative mobility solutions, including personal and shared automobiles. Alongside these premium transit services, non- motorized, active transportation (walking and bicycling) should be integrated with the essential infrastructure in place to support the use and accomplish the Complete Streets component of a comprehensive transportation network. A progressive parking requirement shall

enforce integrated structured parking, uncouple structured parking, and on-street parking, with no minimum parking requirement. The minimum residential density goals for the Urban Center Typology are 50 Dwelling Unit (DU)/Acre in the TOD-1 zone and 20 DU/Acre in the TOD-2 zone to support a mix of housing types. Uses include mid- and high-rise condominium residential use and multifamily residential use, large retail and office uses, and Mixed- use buildings.

These Primary Typologies capture all premium transit station area planning efforts in the region. Within these general Primary Station Typologies, Secondary Typologies specific to commuter rail were identified for the purpose of this project. Figure 4-3 shows the three Primary station Typologies and their location along the FCCR, and an identification and explanation of the Primary and Secondary Typologies is provided in the following pages.
