Dwelling District Six-Two

The D-6II District is intended principally for medium intensity residential development as a transition between areas of high intensity uses and low intensity uses, or land areas characterized by more challenging terrain or unusual land configuration, such as remnant parcels of land resulting from public works improvements, exhausted mining operations, and changed intensity factors (such as between interstate highway locations, commercial development and lower-density residential areas). Consequently, the constraints and advantages presented by existing site conditions, including vegetation, topography, drainage, and wildlife, should be incorporated into the development plans and to promote the environmental aesthetic. Permitting a variety of housing types affords flexibility to and opportunity to fulfill the sites challenges. Selective on-site recreational facilities and open space activities must be provided to maximize efficiency, site opportunities, and residents' needs. The District should be in close proximity to major thoroughfares, sewers, school and park facilities. The D-6II District has a typical density of nine to 12 units per gross acre fulfilling the medium density residential recommendation of the Comprehensive General Land Use Plan.
