This district is intended to implement the Comprehensive Plan policies for portions of the Bellingham Urban Growth Area and portions of other urban growth areas of the county suitable for mixed use development. In the Bellingham Urban Growth Area, the city of Bellingham’s design and development standards and guidelines shall apply. The district is intended to provide for affordable housing types such as apartments, townhouses, and condominiums. Residential development should be located within walking distance of transit stations, designated commercial centers, parks and recreational areas and other employment centers where appropriate.
