Residential, Multi-family, High Density District

This district is intended to provide for high density multi-family urban residential development, as illustrated in the following table, with related recreational facilities protected from intrusion of non-residential activity. The minimum number of dwelling units in R-A districts is eight; there is no maximum number of dwelling units. Single-family dwellings existing at the time of adoption of this ordinance are permitted uses. New single-family dwelling units are not permitted in R-A districts. Minimum lot size in R-A districts is twenty ninethousand two-hundred square feet. This number is based on the methodology of requiring seven thousand twohundred square feet for the first unit plus four thousand square feet for the next four units and two thousand square feet for each additional unit. Larger lots are permitted if so desired. As the Table of District Dimensional Regulations illustrates, zero lot lines are permitted along common walls, when approved by the building official and the planning commission. Setbacks are required between buildings; see the Table of District Dimensional Regulations (Article VIII, Section 114-132) for standards. Permitted uses are designed to stabilize and protect the essential characteristics of the area and permit certain home occupations as set forth in this chapter.
