DwellingÑ uses. Further, the term ÐMulti-DwellingÑ equates to an apartment, according <br />to our codeÓs definition section. Looking at the prevalence of the R2A zoning in the city, <br />it is apartment that the intent of that zoning district is NOT for apartments, but rather for <br />both Single Family Detached and Attached homes, with Attached homes being duplexes <br />or twin homes. The commission should discuss whether multi-plexes such as 3, 4+ <br />attached row or townhome style homes should be a part of this district. <br /> <br />Staff is recommending that rows be added, for ÐR2A Single-Family AttachedÑ and ÐR2A <br />Two FamilyÑ be established with further discussion on setbacks and other standards. <br />These types of development, are often handled through PUD, so it may make sense to <br />simply note that in the table. <br /> <br />R3 Î High Density Multi-Family Residential District <br />The R3 district discusses a Ð...density goal..Ñ of 12 units per acre. This does not provide <br />staff with specific guardrails on minimums or maximum densities. It is the intent of this <br />district to provide opportunities for high density townhome or row homes, in addition to <br />apartments. Again, the setbacks in Table 1 of Appendix A could be reconsidered as <br />many of these projects are done through a PUD. <br /> <br />Staff recommends setting the minimum density at 12 units per acre and the maximum at <br />45 units per acre. <br /> <br /> <br />
