Residential/Office General District

This is a mixed-use designation which is applied to those areas appropriate for development as offices and or medium-density residential uses or combinations thereof, consistent with the surrounding uses, transportation facilities, and environmental characteristics of such areas. Appropriate locations are transition areas between urban activity centers or intense nonresidential uses and lower density residential or public,institutional,public service uses. These locations are typically close to, and served by, the arterial highway network and by mass transit. This land use designation allows professional, business, limited personal service uses, and residential uses. With few exceptions, these developments are characterized by moderate traffic generation, daytime hours of operation, and minimal adverse impacts resulting from noise, odors, poor aesthetics, or outdoor activities. No inventory shall be kept on premises, and no outdoor activities or storage are allowed within this land use designation. Additional considerations including, but not limited to, acreage limitations, as follows: ancillary nonresidential and transportation/utility use shall not exceed a maximum area of three acres; institutional use except for public educational facilities which are not subject to this threshold shall not exceed a maximum area of five acres. Any such use, alone or when added to existing contiguous like use(s), which exceeds this threshold shall require a plan map amendment which shall include such use and all contiguous like uses. In addition, personal service/office support use shall not exceed a floor area of five thousand square feet; and no combination of such uses in any single multi-tenant building or, in the alternative, in any group of buildings that are integral to and function as part of a unified project, shall exceed ten percent of the gross floor area of said buildings.
