Planning Commission <br />Staff Report <br />June 24, 2021 <br />The property is zoned Community Commercial (C-C) and subject to the Downtown <br />Louisville Design Handbook ("Design Handbook") and Downtown Louisville Framework <br />Plan ("Framework Plan"). The Design Handbook and Framework Plan designate two <br />character areas in Downtown, the "Core Area" and "Transition Area." The map in <br />Figure 2 below shows the Core Area highlighted in blue and the Transition Area in <br />crosshatch. The Core Area is the traditional business center for Downtown while the <br />Transition Area includes more of a mix of traditional commercial and residential uses. <br />The Transition Area includes policies for lower building heights and less density as <br />compared to the Core Area as a way to transition building character between the <br />commercial core and surrounding residential neighborhoods. <br />Figure 2: Downtown Map with Core Area in Blue and Transition Area is Crosshatch <br />3 <br />5 <br />
