The intent of this district is to provide for a variety of housing
types and compatible, related uses at a moderate to high density of
residential development. The primary housing form is multi-unit dwellings.
These types of dwellings typically provide common open space and provide
housing options with certain accessory uses such as parks, laundry
facilities, and garages, among others. Housing developed within this
district should have the same degree of living quality expected from
any other residential district. Uses within this district should be
sensitive to adjacent uses. Building size and form should be compatible
to the size and form of neighboring districts and adjacent buildings,
so as to enhance the available housing options of local residents
without disrupting the continuity and character of existing neighborhoods.
This district should be well-integrated into the surrounding community,
functioning as a transitional zone between single-family residential
uses and higher intensity uses.
