Fort Drum Installation Planning Standards (IPS), Part I: Building Standards Update DATE: May 10, 2017
Updates to the IPS Building Standards “Materials & Colors” have occurred. As current projects proceed it has become necessary to revise and update the material color designations for various reasons. The color matrix updates occur on pages 24-28.
The following are updates to the IPS Materials & Colors Matrix:
1. Page 24, South Post Standing Seam Roof “Glidden Comorant 40YY/101” was updated to “MCBI Signature 300 Medium Bronze”.
This color was revised because the former color did not meet the new Kynar paint specification for the NCOA that is in progress. The new Medium Bronze color meets the specification and was used on the existing Lift Station. It is a shade darker than the former Glidden product.
2. Page 24, South Post Primary Metal Paneling “Sisal 30YY 41/165” was updated to “Fluropon Desert Beige”, responding to an inquiry on the new NCOA.
3. Page 25, South Post Window and Door colors “Glidden Comorant 40YY 10/101” was updated to “MCBI Signature 300 Medium Bronze”. See explanation in #4 of this section above.
4. Page 28, Airfield Wall Accents Precast Concrete “Steps Plus Fort Drum Buff was updated to “Steps Plus Simulated Limestone”. This color was revised because the former color did not match that of building P19900 Battalion Headquarters next door and the other buildings on the airfield.

Installation Planning Standards Overview
Installation Planning Standards (IPS) capture the installation’s guidelines for development of sustainable and efficient facilities. The standards provide a clear set of guidelines to ensure that the installation’s vision and planning objectives for development are achieved. The standards are applicable to all installation tenants.
The IPS supports the Regulating and Illustrative Plans in each Area Development Plan (ADP) by specifying building, landscape, and street standards.
The IPS is developed to promote visual order, enhance the natural and manmade environments through consistent architectural themes and standards, and improve the functional aspects of the installation.
The IPS provides common facility and infrastructure standards for the installation, provides guidance on cost-effective resource investments, ensures sustainability and efficiency of facilities, and improves the function and appearance of the installation, to include guidance on exterior and interior planning parameters, and landscaping.
BUILDING STANDARDS
This IPS includes building standards that establish basic parameters governing building form. The intent of these standards is to shape and detail public space that is safe, comfortable, and functional through placement and envelope controls on each building type. The standards aim for the minimum level of land use control necessary to meet the planning goals. These standards include not only building standards, but also site planning standards and building-related force protection standards. For each general type of building, there is a building envelope standard (BES). Typical elements defined in each BES are massing, height, placement (e.g.
required build-to lines and percentage of building that must be built to the required build-to lines), allowed parking locations, materials, and use.
Installations will develop a BES for each applicable building type on the installation.
STREET STANDARDS
The Street Standards illustrate typical configurations for all street types on an installation through street envelope standards (SES). Each SES addresses vehicular traffic-lane widths, sidewalk and tree planting area dimensions, and on-street parking configurations. An SES is required for every type of street specified on the installation. After a street is selected, the characteristics desired for that street section should be documented in plan and section.
LANDSCAPE STANDARDS
Landscape Standards show, at a minimum, appropriate type and placement of landscape elements, which includes natural landscape features (trees, groundcover, 1368 etc.), manmade landscape features (street furniture, signage, lighting, etc.), and landscape-related force protection standards. Landscape standards identify the installation’s landscape theme(s). They address both planning intent and allowable plant materials and site furnishing elements.
INCORPORATION OF INSTALLATION DESIGN
GUIDE
The Installation Planning Standards refers to and incorporates text and images from the 2011 Installation Design Guide created by Atkins. All maps and graphics were redesigned and updated to reflect new UFC standards from IMCOM, DoD, and guidance from the Fort Drum Vision practicum participants.

Building Standards Overview
9Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards Part I: Building Standards
The character of an installation's buildings impacts the overall image of the installation. The visual analysis of buildings and related structures helps define visual zones and themes and is an important part of an installation’s assets and liabilities assessment. The building standards component encompasses the character of the buildings as well as the arrangement of buildings to one another and to their environment. In general, these standards use architectural style, materials, and colors indigenous to the region. The preservation of historically and culturally significant structures adds to an installation’s character and provides a sense of heritage.
The visual analysis of structure also includes concern for anti-terrorism/force protection (AT/FP) standards, accessibility, use of materials, placement of entrances, incorporation of additions and renovations, the incorporation of plazas and courtyards, and the appropriateness and quality of building maintenance.
The character of installation architecture varies according to the use of the structure and when it was built. This use and age variation can result in character incompatibilities. The difference in character may also result when the planner ignores the character and scale of adjacent buildings or uses an imitative technique unsuccessfully. The coordination of structural character on an installation provides a consistent and coherent “sense of order” and “sense of place”. This relationship comes from using compatible scales, massing, form, color, texture, materials, and fenestration. These techniques can be utilized in the visual review and analysis of the installation. They are further explained on the following pages.
Scale, Form, & Massing
SCALE
Scale is the proportion of one object to another.
Human or intimate scale incorporates buildings and landscape elements that are moderate in size.
Monumental scale incorporates large or grand building elements. In general, human scale involves more horizontal elements, while monumental scale accentuates the vertical elements.
The scale of most buildings on Fort Drum campus should be more human than monumental. Where the scale of different buildings is consistent in a single area, it results in a strong unified image.
All new construction should maintain compatibility of scale with adjacent buildings.
Scale and relief should be provided through proper use of roof form, fenestration, building articulation and landscape plantings.
FORM
The form of a building is determined by its size, mass, shape and proportions. The use of similar building forms provides continuity to the installation architectural impact. The result is a more aesthetically pleasing environment.
MASSING
Mass is defined as a three-dimensional form such as a cube, box, cylinder, or pyramid. The way the forms are sized directly relates to the way building elements are emphasized or de-emphasized. Voids of open space in the forms can change their appearance and make the building more interesting and less imposing.
New buildings should be carefully developed to meet the desired size and proportion requirements.
The size and proportions of a new building if located in a cluster of existing buildings should be planned to make it compatible with the architectural theme of adjacent structures in the same visual zone.
The height of a new building should be determined partially by the height of its neighbors. A new high-rise building should not be located on a site directly adjacent to lower-rise buildings.
All major building features should maintain character with adjacent buildings whenever possible, including general fenestration, cornice lines, belt courses and roof lines.
When the program requires a large building mass, the form should be "articulated" by modulating the facade plane.
Part I: Building Standards
FENESTRATION
Building fenestration includes features such as doors, windows, and building decoration details. These features should be similar in arrangement, size, and proportion for architectural compatibility and visual consistency and continuity. New window and door types are addressed within the building prototypes presented earlier in this section. Below are general guidelines that pertain to all facilities:
Incorporate increased fenestrations on the south and east sides of facilities and fewer fenestrations on the north and west sides.
Wood or metal doors must be hinged and match the building style. Glass may be included, and can comprise between 50 to 75 percent of the door. All-glass doors are not recommended.
Door glazing may be subdivided by narrow mullions: vertically, vertically and horizontally, but not horizontally only.
When building in areas where new buildings match or are similar to existing structures, doors and windows should relate to their historical prototypes.
When replacing windows and doors, they must match existing windows and doors for materials, colors, configuration, arrangement, profiles, and other architectural details. Modification of glass area is acceptable when original proportions are maintained.
When replacement is needed, and when upgrades are feasible, replace existing single-pane glass windows with insulated glass and thermally broken window frames to promote energy efficiency.
In the historic housing district, maintenance of original windows and doors is the preferred solution. If maintaining the existing window or door is not possible, all replacements shall be reviewed by DPW.
If internal screening for windows is required, the solution must maintain the appearance of the window when viewed from the building exterior, while eliminating the opening from the interior view of the building.
PEDESTRIAN DOOR BOLLARDS
Due to the harsh weather conditions at Fort Drum, bollards shall be installed at certain entrances to act as door stops. This will prevent strong winds from swinging the doors to far and damaging the frame, closing mechanisms, and hinges.
Bollards shall be placed at all doors that are in exposed location subject to high winds. These will serve as a secondary measure to stop the door when closing mechanisms fail.
In locations where doors are protected from strong wind gusts, by either a knee wall or recessed entrance, the use of bollards is optional.
The bollards should be 3” diameter, 3’-0” high, located approximately 6” behind the full open swing of the door. Bollards will include a rubber bumper to protect doors from denting upon impact.
Fenestration & Door Bollards
11Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards
ENTRANCES
A building entrance is a primary feature of any building. The primary entrance should be defined and recognizable as the point of access, regardless of the size or importance of the building. In some instances there may be two primary entrances, or a secondary entry that will require special treatment.
This could exist where a building is sited on a corner, or where tenants use a primary entrance at the rear while the ceremonial entrance faces the primary street. The entry treatment, in terms of level of architectural detail and prominence, must adhere to a logical order of hierarchy and aesthetics within the context of the building and site.
This section provides guidelines for establishing and planning exterior spaces.
The entrance to a building should be in a prominent location and should be oriented toward the primary adjacent public spaces (such as a courtyard, lawn, parking lot, or street).
The details of an entrance should be created to provide continuity with other entrances to the building and the entrances of adjacent buildings.
The style, color, texture, and scale of all entrance canopies and porches must be compatible with the existing building.
Vestibules, when required, should be provided within the existing building envelope if possible.
Replacement doors and storm doors must be architecturally compatible with the existing building style. Modifications or alterations to entrances, doors, and vestibules of historic buildings are not allowed.
Accessible ramps, railing, and signage must be consistent with building character. They should be placed in areas that do not detract from the building’s appearance. This is most important for historic structures. Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS) compliance must be considered during the planning of new construction.
The planning of the walkway and paved area in front of the entrance doors is directly related to the building function and number of occupants that use the facility. (Also see Plazas and Courtyards provided later within this section.)
ACCESSIBILITY
All structures or facilities must meet the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) and the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS), with the most stringent standards applied in the event of conflicting guidelines. Any building or facility used only by able-bodied personnel need not be accessible to the disabled. Nevertheless, when feasible and appropriate, seek to incorporate accessibility measures into the plan as the facility use may change over time. This includes the avoidance of site barriers through the use of curb cuts, ramps, handrails, and grade-level entrances.
Provide designated handicapped parking spaces in all major parking lots and drop-off zones for persons with mobility impairments. Modify existing structures for handicapped accessibility whenever possible, especially community facilities that are most likely to be used by families, veterans, or visitors.
Entrances & Accessibility
12Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards
Screening enclosures should be consist of walls and landscaping. The enclosure walls should be between six and eight feet high and should be constructed with the same materials as the adjacent building.
SERVICE AREAS
Service areas need to provide access for service vehicles while still meeting AT/FP requirements. This may require bollards and other such devices to permit necessary equipment access to the facility.
Access to loading docks must have adequate turning radius and backup/circulation area for vehicles accessing the loading docks.
Service areas (such as loading docks, utility access/equipment, and trash dumpsters) will be screened from the views of primary use areas (such as entrances, courtyards, gathering areas, streets, and parking lots). Screening can be an enclosure using walls, berms, landscaping, or any combination thereof.
MECHANICAL AND COMMUNICATION
EQUIPMENT
Mechanical equipment is a necessary component in building function. All duct work, electrical conduits, plumbing lines, antennas and communication equipment must be located internally. Ducts, vents, electrical and plumbing lines that are currently located on the exterior of buildings must be replaced and rerouted internally.
Mechanical equipment that is located outside of the building envelope will be integrated or screened in a manner that does not detract from the overall visual quality of the building and surrounding area, using the following guidelines:
Equipment can be located within an interstitial space (such as a mechanical mezzanine), so as not to be visible from ground level. In instances of smaller buildings, equipment may be located on the exterior, but adequately concealed.
Equipment can be located on the ground with appropriate screening, or within an ancillary structure attached or directly adjacent to the building. Appropriate screening elements include: walls, fences, vegetation, or any combination thereof.
Equipment must be located at side or rear of buildings, away from primary public areas, and should not be placed near windows or doors.
AT/FP issues and guidelines must be considered when locating and screening mechanical equipment.
Transmitting microwave antenna locations must be approved by DPW.
Multi-element antennas and satellite/communication dishes are typically located in a group at a common location (antenna farm designated by the DPW) and screened from public view.
STORAGE TYPES AND PLACEMENT
Accommodating storage within the existing structure is the preferred solution. If exterior storage sheds are required, the following guidelines must be met:
Storage sheds must be located in an organized fashion near or adjacent to existing structures rather than in open spaces; but as the size of buildings increases, they can be located proportionately further away.
Storage sheds must be located on private, rather than public, side of the building.
Materials and colors must harmonize with adjacent buildings.
The size of storage sheds must be proportionate to the size of adjacent related buildings -between 5% and 10% of floor area of the main building.
AT/FP standards must be met.
Screening & Storage Areas
13Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards
Exterior spaces such as plazas, courtyards, employee break areas, and recreation areas provide desirable places between the outdoors and the indoors, where people can enjoy a variety of functions from passive activities (such as reading, eating, or sitting) to more active uses (such as recreation). These spaces can be informal, formal, private, semi-private, and public places. They can be planned as transition spaces that take the user from one building to another. They can act as spaces for people to sit, or they can serve as entry spaces to a building or group of buildings. The layout of the plazas and courtyards depends heavily on the building’s function and amount of occupants. This section provides guidelines for establishing and planning exterior spaces.
Orientation of an exterior space may have an inward or outward focus. An inward focus refers to spaces that concentrate on an internal focal point, such as a fountain or sculpture. Outward focus refers to spaces that take advantage of good views and vistas beyond the space.
Create a sense of enclosure by providing a ratio no more than 3:1 between width of the space and surrounding building heights.
Create spaces suitable for pedestrian use that integrate seating, lighting, planting, and paving.
Provide an east-west orientation, screen the north winds, and shade the summer sun.
Relate courtyards and plazas to existing buildings and surroundings. Courtyards are typically small, open spaces defined by buildings on three or four sides. Plazas are typically larger open spaces defined by buildings on one or two sides.
Provide barrier-free pedestrian accessibility into the space.
Use plants to articulate space by establishing a ground plane (paving, ground cover), middle plane (trees, shrubs), and overhead plane (tree canopy, trellis), to modify the climate and provide scale and aesthetic elements.
Use paving to provide a sense of direction and scale, indicate level changes, separate pedestrian and vehicular traffic, and visual accent.
Plazas and courtyards need to meet AT/FP requirements. Wide, paved entrance plazas need vehicular barriers.
Plazas & Courtyards

OVERVIEW
The Army utilizes the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – New Construction (LEED- NC®) sustainability rating as outlined by the US Green Building Council (USGBC). These standards shall be met as an integral part of all building plans for new construction, sustainment, repair, and modernization to reduce construction, maintenance, and life cycle costs and to conserve energy. LEED Project Checklists are available on the web at www.usgbc.org.
STANDARDS
Buildings planned and constructed to incorporate sustainable planning criteria will minimize life cycle, energy, and maintenance costs through proper selection of forms, materials, and construction details.
Time-Proven Plans: Elements indigenous to the region should be utilized in the planning of new buildings.
Select the Right Site: New green structures and communities cannot be built on environmentally sensitive sites, such as prime farmland, wetlands, and endangered-species habitats. The greenest sites are “in-fill” properties, such as former parking lots, rail yards, and factories. Whenever possible, locate buildings on the site to preserve existing shade trees (to maximize southern exposures for summer shade and winter sun) and plant evergreens on the north sides of buildings to buffer winter winds. Building orientation should take advantage of natural winds, solar orientation, and other natural conditions.
Green Materials: Use non-toxic building materials and furnishings, such as: low- and zero- VOC (volatile organic compound) paints;
strawboard made from wheat (rather than formaldehyde-laced particle board); toxin-free insulation; natural linoleum; wood-based features from Forest Stewardship Council– derived wood; salvaged materials such as kitchen tiles; and materials with significant recycled content.
Superior Indoor Environmental Quality: Allow natural daylight to reach at least 75 percent of the structure’s interior. Natural ventilation (via building orientation, operable windows, fans, and wind chimneys) should bring plentiful fresh air inside the house. In existing structures, bring sunlight inside to reduce use of artificial lighting and improve indoor environmental quality by installing larger (low-emission) windows, clerestories, and light shelves.
Green Technologies and Fixtures: A green building has efficient lighting, heating, cooling, and water-heating systems. Purchase Energy Star appliances. If a reasonable payback can be determined, consider using energy technologies such as photovoltaic systems. A green building has water-efficient fixtures, as well as drought-tolerant landscaping. Use a light-colored heat-reflecting Energy Star roof.
Landscape for Savings: Landscaping is one of the most cost-effective ways to turn a structure green. Select native landscape materials that do not require irrigation systems to sustain. Vine-covered “green screens,” large trees, and other landscaping should shade exterior walls, driveways, patios, and other “hardscape” to minimize heat islands and lower air-conditioning bills.
Keep the Selections Green: Select furnishings made of natural and recycled materials. Use non-toxic cleaning and pest control products.
Monitor the performance of your heating and cooling systems to optimize efficiency.
Sustainability Standards
15Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards
The visual integrity of historic buildings or districts on the Installation will be preserved and protected. The Army’s management of historic properties is pursuant to the duties and responsibilities established by Congress under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The NHPA also created the National Register of Historic Places as the official listing of the nation’s historic properties considered worthy of preservation. Additionally, the Fort Drum Historic District is subject to the standards set forth in the Fort Drum Cultural Resources Management Plan (CRMP). When working with historic properties, the Army uses the following three categories:
Historic Buildings or Structures. These are significant buildings or structures that are listed in, or eligible for listing in, the National Register of Historic Places.
Historic District. This is a distinct group of buildings, structures, or landscapes that possesses significance, and is listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register.
National Historic Landmarks. Buildings, structures, or landscapes listed in the National Register, but also recognized as nationally significant. National Historic Landmarks can either be listed individually or as a district.
For further guidance see Part IV Appendix, Preservation Guidelines and Army Regulation 200- 1 (Chapter 6) and Department of the Army Pamphlet 200-4. Specific requirements and recommendations for the treatment of historic properties are available in the National Park Service’s Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. A working awareness of historic preservation policies and procedures followed by the Army Corps of Engineers can be found in the Technical Instruction (TI) 800-01, Design Criteria, Chapter 16, Preservation of Historic Structures.

Adaptive reuse is a process by which existing facility vacancies are evaluated for a new use. The evaluation process is meant to be a collaboration with the DPW, whose staff can assist in the best reuse strategies for incoming programs. Understanding the scope and requirements of the incoming program will best assure a thorough site selection process. A preferred course of action can then be derived and vetted. Final approval can then be made by the DPW, Garrison Command, and other stakeholders. The table below can be used in evaluating existing facilities for adaptive reuse.

Accommodating the need for security and antiterrorism measures is a significant concern for all military facilities plans. The planning of protective elements should be integral to the entire facility. It should also seek to merge force protection requirements with the need for a confident, visually cohesive facility image. The challenges and demands of ensuring security are diverse, including older incompliant facilities; limited land resources;
and achieving a visually unified and functional Post.
Through the use of consistent and durable material selection, common elements (such as fences, screen walls, retaining walls, swales, berms, planters, streetscapes, and courtyards) can be planned to not only support visual harmony and architectural compatibility but also support force protection.
Security and antiterrorism requirements will require coordination among the planning disciplines, including land planners, landscape architects, intelligence personnel, security personnel, Force Protection Officer, physical security, facility users, and engineers. The planners must work to balance force protection requirements with the needs and restrictions imposed by the type of development.
These include the ADAAG, UFAS, National Fire Protection Codes (NFPA), and all applicable local building codes and ordinances. The planning team will also consult security personnel to determine whether portions of the planning documents are subject to access limitations.
BUILDING SITING AND PLANNING STANDARDS
A primary concern for Army Installations throughout the world is the threat of terrorist attacks on DoD buildings that house large populations of personnel.
Force protection is a means to reduce mass casualties caused by the failure to adequately protect occupants from an attack. Therefore, the DoD has developed the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 4-010-01, DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings.
UFC 4-010-01 establishes the minimum building antiterrorism standards for all DoD components.
Mandatory DoD minimum antiterrorism standards for new and existing inhabited buildings are contained in its Appendix B.
Mandatory DoD minimum antiterrorism standards for expeditionary and temporary structures are contained in its Appendix D.
Additional recommended measures for new and existing, inhabited buildings are contained in its Appendix C.
Implementation of these standards is mandatory for all new construction regardless of the funding source. For existing buildings, implementation of standards for the entire structure is mandatory when the cost for renovations, modifications, repairs, and/or restorations exceeds 50% of the replacement costs of the structure. These standards apply to FY04 and all subsequent fiscal years. The standards will be reviewed before any site planning is initiated.
MINIMUM STANDOFF DISTANCES AND
SEPARATION FOR BUILDINGS
The DoD minimum standards, when applicable, may be supplemented by more stringent force protection building standards, in order to meet specific threats inherent in the geographical area where the facility is to be constructed.
Those additional requirements may be established by either standards for specific Combatant Commanders or based on Risk and/or Threat Analysis.
When the minimum standoff distances cannot be achieved because land is unavailable, the standards allow for building hardening to mitigate blast effects. Costs and requirements for building hardening are addressed in the DoD Security Engineering Manual.
LOCKS AND LOCKING DEVICES
Fort Drum uses Stanley Systems for Barracks;
locking solutions for other facilities will be addressed on a case by case basis.
Anti-Terrorism / Force Protection
18Fort Drum Real Property Vision Plan │ Installation Planning Standards
ORIENTATION OF BUILDINGS ON A SITE
The following will be given consideration when determining the orientation of a building.
Deny aggressors a clear “line of sight” to facilities from on or off the Installation wherever possible. Protect facilities against surveillance, by locating facilities outside the range or out of view of vantage points.
Protect against attack by selecting perimeter barriers to block sight lines, such as obstruction screens, trees, or shrubs. Non-critical structures or other natural or man-made features can also be considered appropriate obstructions.
Create “defensible space” by positioning facilities to permit building occupants and police to clearly monitor adjacent areas.
Orient buildings so there are no sides perpendicular to vehicle approach routes.
Incorporate traffic calming measures to discourage high-speed approach into any critical or vulnerable areas.
Avoid siting the facility adjacent to high surrounding terrain, which provides easy viewing of the facility from nearby non-military facilities.
UNOBSTRUCTED SPACE
Ensure that vegetation and site features within 33 feet of inhabited buildings do not present opportunities to conceal objects of 6 inches in height (UFC 4-010-01, Appendix B, Paragraph B-1.3). This does not preclude landscaping within the unobstructed space, but it will affect the plans and may affect plant selection.
FENCING
Fences are used as protective measures against project-specific threats. They are most appropriately used to define boundaries and to deter penetration of a secure area. A fence will assist in controlling and screening authorized access to a secured area. Fences also serve these purposes:
Act as a platform for the Intrusion Detection System;
Screen against explosive projectiles; and
If engineered to do so, to stop moving vehicles.
Plants with tall growth habits and/or large mature growth will be located well away from security fences. Use security fence that meets State Department standards, based on facility priority.
The use of chain-link fence will be held to a minimum in the Cantonment area.
LIGHTING
Lighting systems for security operations provide illumination for visual and closed-circuit television (CCTV) surveillance of boundaries, sensitive inner areas, and entry points. When CCTV is used as part of security operations, the lighting system will be coordinated with the CCTV system. The specific Installation environment and the intended use determines lighting system requirements. Often two or more types of lighting systems are used within a single area. Guidance on the use of security lighting may be obtained from TM 5-811-1, Electrical Power Supply and Distribution.
PLANNING
Safety and security elements are related to features that offer protection by means of barriers that inhibit or regulate movement. These include:
Walls and fences
Static barriers
Active barriers
Safety and security elements assume many plans and configurations depending on their purpose. The design of these elements must observe the following:
Contemporary and simple layout;
Visually non-obstructive barriers using grade variation and retaining walls;
Galvanized metal, stone, or brick construction materials that will complement or blend in with their surrounds;
A maximum of two color hues with acceptable colors that include: black, brown, gray, yellow, white, or the color of the natural material; and
Plans that satisfies AT/FP standards.

Building Materials and Colors
Part I: Building Standards
The materials and colors will vary from District to District across Fort Drum. The architectural districts established in the Installation Design Guide are different than the planning districts established as part of the Real Property Vision in the Framework Plan. As Area Development Plans occur, care must be taken to incorporate the materials and colors into the Real Property Districts. The Architectural Districts are overlaid on the Real Property Districts to highlight the difference in boundaries.

As noted earlier, the IPS supports the Regulating and Illustrative Plans in each Fort Drum ADP by specifying building, landscape, and street standards. These standards create the basis for a form-based code. Implementation through form-based coding allows installations to exercise more control in the development process. It provides a tool to ensure that building development supports the installation’s vision, goals, and objectives. Form-based codes promote mixed-use, compact, and walkable development patterns, not traditional auto-oriented, segregated land uses. Form-based codes emphasize spatial principles that support sustainable development, making building form and character the most important factor, and specific building use secondary.
The code is a graphic tool that condenses the installation vision, goals, and objectives into a clear, readable, enforceable plan for development. The code provides clear parameters for height, massing, siting, and basic building elements for each district on the installation.
THE FORM-BASED CODE INCLUDES THE
FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:
• Regulating Plans that regulate only the most important elements of the Illustrative Plan such as Required Build-To Lines (RBLs), required entry and/or parking locations, minimum and maximum building heights. The Regulating Plan refers the users to building and street standards.
Regulating Plans are created as part of the ADP planning process for each district.
• Building Guidelines that specify acceptable massing, height, fenestration, and uses.
• Illustrative Plans that graphically illustrate potential development outcomes that support the overarching planning vision.
• Street Standards that graphically demonstrate street design requirements in section.
The chart below identifies a full range of Building Guidelines that could be applied on Fort Drum. The actual Building Guidelines applied will be specified on individual district Regulating Plans.
PART II
STREET
STANDARDS
The overall image of the installation is greatly determined by the layout and location of roadways, walkways, entrances, lighting and parking lots. This section discusses the details of the circulation system and how it impacts safety, efficiency, and visual appeal of the built environment. Guidelines for lighting can be found in Part VI: Site Elements Appendix on page 86.
The roadway network for Fort Drum should separate types of traffic by function and volume, ranging from through traffic to local traffic. The most efficient transportation networks provide enough connectivity and continuity to offer route flexibility and the opportunity for special street functions.
The four functional classifications are Arterial, Collector, Local, and Residential. The following pages present the overview for each of the four classifications. It is important to note that the detailed planning of each road will vary based on the context of the area. Elements that could change include the number of lanes, planting strips, center medians, on-street parking, sidewalks, and bicycle lanes. The table below discusses typical context areas and considerations for each.
CONTEXT PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
Range/Natural Roads generally serve to connect distant destinations Pedestrian amenities and on-street parking may not be necessary Provisions for PT Training routes should be considered
Industrial Vehicle mobility and access is generally the priority Pedestrian amenities and on-street parking may not be necessary Should promote a more functional layout
Housing Roads need to safely accommodate a variety of users at low speed Sidewalks and…
