Multifamily Residential District

The RM-8 districts are designed to provide suitable areas for multifamily dwellings at densities which are conducive to development of townhouse, and other forms of attached dwellings where sufficient urban facilities are available or where such facilities will be available prior to development. These districts may permit a variety of housing types and forms of property ownership within the same development. In order to permit maximum flexibility in the design solutions and ownership mechanisms available within these districts while maintaining necessary control over the development process, any RM-8 district created after adoption of this ordinance shall not be created as a freestanding district, but shall in all instances be overlain by a PUD, Planned Unit Development District. These districts also permit community facilities, public utilities, and open uses which serve specifically the residents of these districts, or that are benefited by an urban residential environment without creating objectionable or undesirable influences upon residential developments. Further, it is the intent of this ordinance that these districts be located where appropriate urban services and facilities, specifically, including public sewer service, are provided so that expansion of appropriate urban services can be physically and economically facilitated throughout the planning jurisdiction. It is the express purpose of this ordinance to exclude from these districts all buildings or other structures and uses having commercial characteristics, whether operated for profit or otherwise, except that conditional uses and home occupations specifically provided by these regulations for these districts shall be considered as not having such characteristics if they otherwise conform to the provisions of this ordinance.
