Land Use The predominant land use within Old Town will be single-family residential. All infill development within such areas should conform to the architectural guidelines established for the Old Town district. Such guidelines are created to protect the continuity of look and feel within Old Town. Along Broadway and First Street, single-family uses will gradually transition to boutique, cottage-style office and/or specialty retail uses. Broadway west of Coleman, will be the retail core of the downtown. Shops, restaurants, and small office uses may be located within the main street retail area. This area is intended to be the heart and main activity center of the Old Town Area. As redevelopment occurs, building frontages should be brought to the property line to be consistent with ultimate streetscape improvements. Adjacent to the retail core, a mixed-use district incorporating mixed use lofts/apartments will serve as a buffer between the Business Park and the core of Old Town. This area will also provide rooftops that service adjacent retail establishments. The Green space area will serve as a community park and its location adjacent to the retail core of Old Town and the mixed-use district will make it an opportunistic and useable open space area. Niche retail is recommended along Preston Road and at the northern end of Coleman. Retail development within these areas should fit within the architectural framework of the Old Town area. Setbacks should be reduced, when possible, along Coleman and Broadway to frame the roadways. Ordinance No. 2021-59, Page 3
