R-3B
High Density Multiple-Family Residence District
The intent of this R-3B Residential District is to allow for areas of highly concentrated multiple-family residential development. This district provides for more intense land usage in areas where lower-density development is deemed neither appropriate nor economical. It is further intended for this district to provide apartment type dwellings in mid-rise structures for those persons desiring to live in such an environment. Allowing densities of up to 72 dwelling units per acre, this district may be applied to areas best suited for such intense residential usage, principally on the fringes of the central business district and Illinois State University. It may also be applied to other areas in the Town where comparable physical arrangements of land uses are present.
