R-3(B)
General Residence District
These districts are designed to provide for all types of residential buildings, in order to permit a broad range of housing types, with appropriate standards on density, open space, and spacing the buildings. These districts are mapped in relation to a desirable future residential density pattern, with emphasis on accessibility to transportation facilities, and to various community facilities, and on the character of the existing development. These districts also include community facilities and public open space uses which serve the residents of the districts or which an open residential environment benefits. The uses permitted in R-3 (a), (b) districts are identical, however, provisions of section 155.056 of this chapter limit the density of residential uses.
