Multi-Family Residential District

The purpose of the Multiple Family Residential Districts is to promote and encourage single and multiple family development at densities that are consistent with the General Plan land use designation and surrounding development. The intent is to provide for higher density classifications in and around the core area and adjacent to major transit centers. The lower density classifications will serve as a transition between single family development and commercial areas or higher density residential areas.; In the Core Area, ground floor commercial or retail uses may be permitted upon approval of a conditional use permit (subject to a specific set of findings) in multistory, high density residential complexes. The intent is to provide convenient services for the tenants living in and around these higher density residential complexes.
