The Urban Design Commission is responsible for reviewing major modification requests that do not qualify as minor modifications, and to review appeals of staff decisions/interpretations. 2. When reviewing requests for modifications, the Urban Design Commission must consider the guiding principles stated in Sec.5.2.5.13. 3, The Urban Design Commission's decision to approve or deny a request for a major modification is based on the following considerations: a. The physical conditions of the property, such as steep slopes, flood plain, drainage, lot shape, physical barriers or easements, make compliance to the specific standard physically impossible, and this hardship is not created by the applicant;or b. The applicant meets the burden of presenting an alternative means of compliance that clearly demonstrates how the code exception would equal or exceed the existing standard in terms of achieving the guiding principles stated in Sec. 5.2.5.13; and c. The modification will not significantly impact adjacent property owners, the character of the area, traffic conditions, parking, public infrastructure, stormwater management, and other matters affecting the public health,safety and general welfare;and d. The modification will not result in a substantial departure from the basic urban principle that new development should add value to the animation and pedestrian walkability of the street edge. ■rm Ba sed Cod e rort Wo rt h,Texa s May 2.2019 May 2.2019 • Code DEFINITIONS I Contents ARTICLE6.
