Form based codes intro
Form-based codes are an alternative to conventional zoning that emphasize physical form and public spaces rather than separation of land uses. They provide clear guidance on the physical character of development through regulations on block layout, building disposition, and architectural form. Form-based codes aim to create walkable, mixed-use places and repair sprawl through compact development patterns. The codes are structured around regulating plans, public frontages, civic spaces, and architectural standards. Examples of implemented form-based codes are provided.
