Removes the minimum lot size requirement of 700 square feet per residential unit - Urban Mix.

Additional regulations:
  • 1 parking space required per unit

  • 45 foot Maximum Building Height

  • Maximum 10 foot front setback

  • No side setbacks

  • 10 foot rear yard setback

  • 25 foot wide lot width

  • Buffer yard standards (depends on adjacent zoning district)

Example: Construction of a new multi-family building on a 3,500 square foot lot

Existing regulations: A 5 unit building (3,500/700 = 5) could be built with 5 off-street parking spaces (5 x 1 = 5). It can be up to 45 feet tall, with a maximum 10 foot front setback, no side setbacks and a 10 foot rear yard setback.

Proposed regulations: A 10 unit building could be built with 10 off-street parking spaces (10 x 1 = 10). It can be up to 45 feet tall, with a maximum 10 foot front setback, no side setbacks and a 10 foot rear yard setback.

Differences: The 700 square foot per unit lot requirement does not apply, so more units could be built on this lot, as long as they meet the other requirements.
