Purpose. It is the purpose of this title to provide for the consideration of alternative
subdivision designs, smart growth and form based subdivisions, infill developments,
mixed-use districts and alternative improvement designs and engineering which differ
from the conventional design standards as outlined within this article of this title,
but which are based upon sound engineering, planning and urban design practice. Infill
development provisions would encourage the development of smaller, isolated tracts
of land in the inner city or the area surrounding it that have been passed over by
development and have remained vacant for years, and may include platted or unplatted
land. "Alternative subdivision improvements" means alternative designs for physical
improvements such as streets, water and wastewater, as well as any other infrastructure
element of a proposed development. Smart code subdivisions are those adopted in accordance
with the Smart Code provisions of the City of El Paso.
