Residential dwellings shall not be prohibited or discouraged in the M-1 District. <br /> <br />The use or conversion of a residential structure for commercial use, other than a home occupation, shall <br />require Site Plan approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Factors to be considered for such a <br />use conversion include, but are not limited to, compatibility with adjacent land uses, structural <br />appearance, structural adaptability, investment relationship, term or length of conversion (interim or <br />permanent) and consistency with any land use plans prepared by the City for the Mixed Use District. <br /> <br />The architectural design and exterior building materials used in connection with any new or expanded use <br />or structure shall be consistent with any architectural design or aesthetic control requirements established <br />by the City for the Mixed Use District. <br /> <br />Division 85: Zero Lot Lines <br /> <br />In new residential subdivisions in M-1, R-2A, R-2, R-3 and R-4 Residential Zoning Districts, structures <br />may be arranged to include one (1) zero lot line provided that no windows or doors open on this side of <br />the structure.
