Community Residential Multiple-Dwelling District

The Community Residential Multiple-Dwelling District is a pedestrian-oriented district, intended to permit residential use of land with various types of multiple dwellings and related uses, including townhouses, duplexes and apartment buildings; and at the intersection of an arterial and collector street, to permit limited sidewalk-oriented commercial uses of a type and size that will primarily serve walking patrons from nearby residences. Pedestrian access from adjacent areas and within the district is promoted through generous, safe, convenient and shaded pedestrian sidewalks along all streets, and primary entrances to dwelling units are primarily oriented to streets, rather than parking lots. It is intended that this district be located near major streets for good accessibility and traffic control, designed to complement adjacent single-family areas, built to meet the needs of the different age and family groups in the community by providing various types and sizes of residential accommodations for ownership and rental, and properly planned with adequate facilities and services so as not to not overtax existing community facilities, utilities or services.; It is also the intent of this district to provide sufficient size areas for multiple dwelling developments and to allow reasonable flexibility in design and orientation for a multifamily structure or group of structures on a given site. The maximum height and floor area requirements may be increased where such increases are determined by administrative variation of the Director of Planning and Development Services to have no adverse traffic, visual or other impacts on adjacent or nearby single-family or two-family residential districts. All Multiple-Dwelling District developments shall include common open space and recreation areas that are visible from development streets.
