Urban Residential District
This district is intended primarily for residential development including a range of dwellings and housing types reasonably compatible with the scale (size, width and height) of detached houses and reflecting residential patterns such as pedestrian orientation, yards, and space between buildings. Buildings may occupy a little more of each residential lot than in the UR-1 District. Other compatible uses include residential businesses and community facilities including parks, schools and religious facilities. The district is characterized by low to moderate activity levels, limited vehicular traffic, trees and other green features, and complete streets supporting transportation choices. The UR-2 District is generally located within easy walking distance of Centers, Corridors, parks and/or schools.
