R3
Residential Small Lot District
The R3 district is intended to protect and enhance established residential neighborhoods by increasing the viability of owner-occupied and affordable dwelling units through small-lot subdivisions, accessory dwelling units, and property improvements compatible with surrounding development patterns. The conversion of existing housing stock to more intense land uses is discouraged. This district may be used as a transition between medium-lot residential development and neighborhood-scale residential, commercial, and institutional development.
