HDR
High Density Residential District
The High Density Residential (HDR) district is established to accommodate a wide range of residential and institutional use types at high densities. The district allows a wide range of housing types, including duplexes, triplexes, quadraplexes, upper-story residential, single-family attached, and single-family detached dwellings. The district also allows pocket neighborhoods and bungalow courts. As a means of creating compact, functional neighborhoods, the district also allows a wide variety of institutional uses, including community centers, day care, schools, assisted living, religious institutions, parks, and utilities. Mixed use development is also allowed in locations where negative impacts can be minimized. Proximity and access to transit facilities and alternative forms of transportation are vital in this district. Low density development comprised of uniform building types or styles is discouraged.
