Traditional Davis Downtown and Residential
Design Guidelines
The Historical Resources Management Commission (HRMC) is working with
the community to prepare design guidelines for the area bounded by the
original 1917 Davis city limits. This area includes the city's commercial
core and its three adjacent neighborhoods: Old North Davis, University
Avenue/Rice Lane, and Old East Davis. The City Council will consider designating
a 1917 Historic/Conservation Overlay District once appropriate design guidelines
have been prepared, reviewed and approved. The guidelines are to strive
to support the following goals:
1. Protect and preserve neighborhood character, fabric and setting while
planning for reasonable growth.
2. Discouraging the demolition of structures that contribute to the
district's historic character by providing guidelines for rehabilitation
of existing structures.
3. Plan for new commercial and residential infill construction that
is compatible and complementary to the character of existing neighborhood
areas within the district.
4. Foster economic development in the downtown consistent with its traditional
scale and character as identified in the Core Area Specific Plan and General
Plan policies.
This web site is being used to enhance the community participation process.
The schedule and results of community meetings and workshops, selected
analysis, and draft guidelines will be posted on this site.
