R-2
Mixed Residence District
The intent of this R-2 Residence District is to accommodate development characterized by a mixture of housing types at a high single-family and low multiple-family structural density. Densities of up to approximately 14 dwelling units per acre are allowed. This district allows for the conversion of dwelling units in older residential areas of mixed dwelling types in order to extend the economic lift of these structures and allow owners to justify expenditures for repairs and modernization and serves as a zone of transition between lower density residential districts and residential districts that permit greater land use intensity and structural density.
