Chapter 17C.123 Form Based Code Zones

Section 17C.123.010 Purpose

The Hamilton Form-Based Code (FBC) is designed to foster an economically vibrant, walkable, mixed-use environment along the Hamilton Street corridor within the boundaries of the code. This code regulates land development by setting careful and coherent controls on building form, coupled with performance-based parameters relative to building use and intensity. Through emphasis on physical form, the Hamilton FBC promotes connectivity and livability with safe, accessible public spaces, a healthy mix of uses, and access to transit.

Where not otherwise regulated within this Chapter, development within the Hamilton FBC area shall meet all applicable regulations of the Spokane Municipal Code.
