Residential Compact Subdivision District
The Residential Compact Subdivision District is intended to accommodate single-family residential neighborhoods comprised of smaller lots. Because of the smaller lot sizes, subdivisions should contain common open space and amenities. This district may be used to provide a transition between lower density residential areas and multi-family, commercial, or central business district areas.
