An educational facility within the EC District must obtain approval by ordinance of a Campus Master Plan for any new construction that would deviate from the bulk and yard regulations of Table 12-502. Once a Campus Master Plan is submitted and approved, the development proceeds in accordance with the plan rather than the base district regulations. Until a Campus Master Plan has been approved, Table 12-502 applies in its entirety to the EC District. A Campus Master Plan may be applied only to those properties owned by an educational facility. A Campus Master Plan (and any subsequent amendment to it) requires approval by ordinance, in accordance with the applicable procedures of Title 5, Subtitle 5 {“Legislative Authorizations”} of this Code. The Campus Master Plan must:address the general site layout of the entire district; and include the following:a site plan for development of the entire district, including the proposed boundaries of the District; the location, square footage, and building heights of all existing structures and uses; the location, approximate square footage, and approximate building heights, within a reasonable range, of all proposed structures and uses; a landscape plan that shows the location of all open space and of any buffering or screening along the perimeter of the district; a sign plan that shows the location of all proposed signs; internal traffic circulation plans, including traffic ingress and egress locations, pedestrian circulation, bicycle circulation, and public transit access; and the location and capacity of all off-street parking and loading spaces. A condition of the EC-1 or EC-2 District zoning designation is that the primary use within the proposed area is an educational facility. An educational facility may choose to submit a Campus Master Plan for approval simultaneously with a zoning map amendment, both subject to approval by ordinance, so that the land would controlled by the Campus Master Plan, rather than the base district standards. Map amendments to increase the boundaries of, add additional uses to, or add additional property to the EC District requires Campus Master Plan approval by ordinance.
