DESIGN DISTRICT OVERLAY
UE
Downtown Residential District
The purpose of the downtown residential district is to promote the improvement of older residential neighborhoods within the downtown by encouraging a transition to more mixed use neighborhoods, including owner-occupied, mixed-age and mixed-income housing with less density where desired and appropriate, low-intensity nonresidential uses, more open space and other neighborhood amenities, creating diverse, mixed-use neighborhoods. The standards of the district will encourage the upgrading of the existing neighborhoods by removing blight and vacancy, providing an opportunity for new residential and commercial development, and fostering a sense of community and place through neighborhood meeting, gathering and cultural places.
