Zoning

R8/25

Residential 8-25 Zone

The R 8-25 zone includes neighborhoods in or near downtown Rainier that are composed primarily of single-family homes on lots that range from 3,500 square feet to over an acre in size. These lots are primarily associated with historic plats in the city of Rainier, such as the Plat of Rainier and Moore’s Addition, though some land not included in these plats is also included in the zone. The R 8-25 zone is intended to promote higher densities of housing near the center of Rainier to encourage a highly walkable downtown. A variety of residential units are allowed, so long as the units meet the minimum density requirements for the area. Where development is sought to be constructed on septic systems, the development must be clustered to ensure that future build-out of a property meets required minimum densities.
