TABLE 5-E: TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT ZONE PURPOSE STATEMENTS
TOD-1 To provide for and encourage the development of moderate to high-intensity mixed-use, compact
urban neighborhoods that support Portland’s investment in high frequency transit infrastructure
through permissions for a dense, pedestrian-scale built environment and a range of uses that
encourage walking, bicycling, and use of public transit at advantageous locations within the City’s
off-peninsula neighborhoods.

TOD-2 To provide for and encourage the development of high-intensity mixed-use, compact urban
neighborhoods that support Portland’s investment in high frequency transit infrastructure through
permissions for a highly dense, pedestrian-scale built environment and a broad range of uses that
allow residents to live, work, shop, dine, and pursue cultural and recreational opportunities while
enjoying a range of mobility choices. The TOD-2 zone is intended to allow for the creation of vibrant,
accessible, 24-hour neighborhoods at suitable locations on or near the peninsula.

TABLE 5-F: OFFICE ZONE PURPOSE STATEMENTS
O To provide areas for the creation of low-intensity office uses, allowed as either independent uses, or integrated
into a park- or campus-like setting. Standards of the O zone encourage office and related uses which are of the
highest quality, are well-designed and maintained, and are compatible with their natural surroundings.
