1. Purpose and Scope
The Design Guidelines for the Central Business District have been developed in
order to establish a framework for development within this area. The Design
Guidelines serve to guide applicants wishing to develop property within the
Central Business District, and to assist the City in reviewing development
proposals.
It is not the intent of the Design Guidelines to impose a particular architectural
style or styles upon new construction within the Central Business District, but to
encourage creativity and diversity within a framework that recognizes and
reinforces the City's character and contributes to a sense of place.
It is the intent of the Design Guidelines to promote the City's goals for the area
which include:
• The development of a commercial center to serve the community
• The redevelopment of the auto salvage yard
• • The incorporation of a central entry boulevard or gateway into the area
• The preservation of visual access from Highway 36
• Development which plans for a pedestrian friendly development
• The establishment of east/west public street and private roadway connections
Between Norell and Oakgreen Avenues
• The integration of complimentary residential development south of the Xcel
Energy easement.
For project and /or design elements that are not identified within these guidelines,
the City's overall Design Guidelines and /or governing ordinances of the City of
Oak Park Heights shall apply. Examples of these project and /or design elements
include but may not be limited to:
Building Setback Building Height Facade Transparency
Upper Story Setbacks Ground Level Expression Franchise Architecture
Public /Private Streets Lighting Landscaping

2. Development Types
Small Box
Buildings should be developed with more than one of the following uses: retail,
office, and service.
Medium Box
Buildings should be developed to provide transitional changes between small box
and big box development. Buildings should be developed with more than one of
the following uses: retail, office, and service.
Large Box
Buildings should be developed in a manner to serve as an anchor for small and
medium box development.
Residential Development
Residential buildings should be townhomes, condominiums, apartments, row -
housing or multi family with underground or tuck -under parking. Residential
development should be located south of the Xcel Energy power line easement.
•
3. Building Context and Character
Structures should be of pedestrian scale with building styles, materials and colors
should be reflective of the surrounding building context. Pedestrian and public
areas should be incorporated with sidewalks, trails, landscaping and other
streetscape amenities including bicycle parking.
Buildings should related to each other by maintaining similar setbacks and be
modest in building scale and height. This can be achieved through cornice lines,
horizontal lines of windows and openings, architectural styles and details,
building materials and colors.
Buildings should be sited so that they relate to surrounding developments and
provide visual access from Highway 36.
Residential buildings should incorporate pitched roofs and entry porches and /or
balconies to identify the front entry and to create character to the buildings.
Porches could be covered or open in design. Primary entries should face the
public street. Secondary entries could be located on the side or rear of the
building.
•

• •
4. Building Design and Materials
A building of more than 24 feet in width should be divided into increments of no
more than 24 feet through the articulation of the facade. The goal is not to make
buildings appear taller but rather to break up the monotonous appearance of
longer facades. This can be achieved through a variety of techniques:
• Divisions or breaks in materials while incorporating materials from
a common palette)
• Window bays
• Separate entrances and entry treatments /porticoes
• Variation in roof lines
• Awnings
• Building setbacks
Buildings should be constructed of authentic materials such as wood, brick,
stone, cast stone, stucco or pour in place concrete. Accent materials may
include metal, glass block, copper flashing, or similar materials. The following
materials are prohibited:
• • Jumbo brick
• Plain or painted concrete block
• Pre -fab concrete "tilt -up" construction
• Aluminum, vinyl, or fiberglass siding
• Clear finished wood
• Reflective glass
• Unpainted galvanized metal
5. Roof Design and Rooftop Screening
Within office, commercial and mixed -use developments, flat roofs or hip roof
accents are encouraged and well - detailed parapets should be used on all flat
roofs to define the roofline.
Within residential developments, roofs should generally be pitched, but a
combination of flat and pitched roofs may be considered.
•
4
• •
For all development types, rooftop terraces may be incorporated into the building
design. Arbors and other structures may be exempted from height restrictions if
they meet the following conditions:
• A maximum height of 10 feet above the roof deck
• A setback from all building facades fronting a public street of at least 10 feet
• Enclosed structures shall cover a maximum of 10 percent of the roof area
• Arbors and other open overhead structures shall cover a maximum of 35
percent of the roof area.
All rooftop equipment shall be screened from view. Equipment screens shall be
well designed and detailed. If rooftop equipment is screened by the building
parapet, the parapet should meet building height limits. Rooftop equipment may
also be screened by a smaller accent roof or enclosure. This structure shall be
set back from any primary facade that fronts a public street a distance equal to at
least 1 1 /2 times its height. Screening of rooftop equipment should be exempted
from the height restriction.
6. Pedestrian Sidewalks, Plazas and Trails
• Walkways, plazas and trails should be incorporated into all development
proposals and provide for pedestrian connections to all public streets and
neighboring developments where appropriate.
Clear pedestrian connections from parking lots and other site features to
buildings must be maintained. Sidewalks and or trails should be incorporated
into all public streets and private roadway development.
Streetscape elements should be incorporated into all plans that include benches,
planters, litter receptacles and so forth that are compatible with the architectural
design of the surrounding buildings and consistent with these design standards.
7. Parking Structures
If a parking structure is required, the design of the structures should be the same
as that of any other commercial or office building within the Central Business
District, especially if the ground floor facade is abutting any public street. The
ground floor of this structure should be developed for office or commercial use to
echo the uses surrounding the development. Windows and openings should be
provided in a manner consistent with surrounding buildings. Permanent and /or
seasonal landscaping shall be provided to soften the design. Sloped floors
• should not dominate the facade of these structures.

1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The City endorsed a master plan for the Central Business District in October 1999 in an
effort to create a pedestrian friendly, mixed -use district. To ensure that the goals and
objectives of the master plan are achieved, the City requested a framework of design
guidelines be developed.
The Design Guidelines have been developed to shape the City's CBD physical form and
to improve the quality and character of new development within this district. The
Guidelines have three primary functions:
1) To guide applicants wishing to construct new buildings or parking within the CBD
area.
2) To assist the City and the public in reviewing development proposals;
3) To establish a framework for improvements to the City's Public realm — its streets,
sidewalks, walkways, and its streetscape and landscape treatments.
It is not the intent of the Guidelines to impose a particular architectural style or styles
upon new construction within the Central Business District. The Guidelines are intended
to encourage creativity and diversity within a framework that recognizes and reinforces
the City's small town character. Character can be defined as the distinctive features that •
contribute to the identity of a place. The CBD Design Guidelines shall be enforced in all
areas that are zoned CBD.
For development guidelines outside of the CBD, the City -wide design guidelines
prepared by Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. in 1998 will be referred. The City's
Zoning ordinances may need to be changed to accommodate for the CBD Design
Guidelines since the CBD is a special district and as such requires flexibility in the design
of its environment.

2. CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT PRECINCTS
The master plan prepared by BRW has three precincts within the Central Business
District (CBD). These are the public green, small box mixed -use, medium box mixed -
use and residential precincts. These four precincts are interconnected and serve to
response to the city's goal of preserving and enhancing pedestrian- friendly CBD.
2a. Public Green Precinct
The public green starts just behind Wal -Mart and weaves into the mixed -use precinct.
3 This precinct extends underneath Northern States Power overhead tension wires then
southward to the existing pond area. It is anticipated that connection would be made to
58 Street from the pond and Wal -Mart.
2b. Small Box Mixed - use Precinct •
New buildings in this precinct should be developed with more than one of the following
uses:

17. PARKING STRUCTURE
17a. Mixed -use Precincts
If parking structure is required, their design should comply with these design guidelines.
The structure should be designed and architecturally detailed like any other commercial
or office building especially if the ground floor facade is abutting any public street. It
should be required that the ground floor be used as commercial or office space to echo
the surrounding uses. Windows and openings should be provided consistent with the
surrounding buildings. Landscaping, seasonal or permanent, should be encouraged to
soften the design. Sloped floors should not dominate the facade of these structures.
17b. Residential Precinct
No parking structure is recommended. Underground parking or tuck under parking is
encouraged with guest parking on- street or surface parking within the property.
18. BICYCLE PARKING
18a. Public Green Precinct
For public green, a minimum of 5 bicycle parking is recommended at the trail head and a
minimum of 10 at the central green.
18b. Small Box and Medium Box Mixed - use Precincts
Bicycle parking is required and its locations should be in a visible, convenient and, if •
possible, in a sheltered location. It is recommended that at least 1 bicycle parking shall
be required for every 50 parking stalls.
19. STREETSCAPE ELEMENTS
19a. Sign
Architecturally, they should be compatible with the style, composition, materials, colors
and details of the buildings. Signs should be integral part of the building and site design.
If buildings house several businesses, a sign program should be developed and located
central to all the businesses. This would save space and be easier for users to locate.
These sign should be compatible with each other and need not match. If illuminated
signs are permitted, only the text and the logo portion of the message may be illuminated.
Awnings should not have back lighting.
19b. Sign Location
Wall or roof signs on buildings should not obstruct or obscure architectural features.
Wall signs should generally be place immediately above the storefront. It is encouraged
to define an area on building facade that could be designated as the "sign location
precinct ".
19c. Sign Materials and Types
Materials should be consistent or compatible with the building materials onto which these •
signs are to be displayed. Wood, metals and other natural materials are more appropriate
than plastic though City staff could review sign materials on case by case basis. This is
especially true with the availability of new technology for sign materials. The following

are type of sign that could be used: awning, canopy or marquee signs, free - standing signs,
ground (low) monument signs, projected signs, roof signs and wall signs.
For both small box and medium box mixed -use precincts, the sign types are awning,
canopy or marquee, projected signs, window signs, roof signs or low ground monument
signs. For residential precinct, if needed, only low ground monument signs and free-
standing signs are permitted. For public green precinct, free - standing signs and low
ground monument signs are permitted.
20. LIGHTING
20a. All precincts
Lighting should be designed to reduce glare and be in scale with the surrounding
buildings. Pedestrian-scale lighting, not more than 14 feet high, should be located on
walkways, trailways and adjacent to store entrances. Public streets lighting fixtures
should use Central Business District light standards and should be compatible with the
architecture of the building. To eliminate glare from other buildings, lights should be
screened with architectural details and other features.
For parking lot lighting, it should be in scale with its surroundings with cutoff fixtures
located below the mature height of trees in parking lot islands. This will prevent ambient
• "glow" or light pollution from other developments.
21. STREETSCAPE FURNISHINGS ,
21a. All Precincts
To maintain a consistent theme throughout the CBD, a well - designed overall streetscape
plan should be developed. The streetscape elements such as benches, litter receptacles,
planters and so forth should be compatible with the building architectural styles or should
be consistent with the CBD design standards. The implementation of the streetscape
elements would require a partnership, cooperation and coordination between the private
and public agencies. At a minimum the private sectors may be required to provide the
minimum treatment along the street their property abuts and the city provides additional
financial support for any upgrade of these streetscape elements.
22. LANDSCAPING
22a. All Precincts
Landscaping is strongly encouraged. In areas where space is limiting, hanging baskets,
window boxes, potted plantings and vines are permitted to add seasonal colors.
Landscaping should be required to screen maintenance facility, dumpsters or parking
structure. Use of vines can greatly reduce the visual impact of these facilities in areas
where planting areas are limited. Street trees should also be planted no more than 30 feet
• along all streets and at entrances and special areas. Shrubs and groundcovers should be
planted with trees. Storefronts entries and blank walls can benefit from these landscaping
