RM-2 Multiple Family Residential Districts-High Rise

§ 86-161 Intent.

[Added 3-16-2015 by Ord. No. 15-03[1]]

The RM-2 Multiple-Family Residential Districts (High Rise) are designed to provide sites for high density multiple dwelling structures adjacent to high traffic generators commonly found in the proximity of Central Business Districts and areas abutting major thoroughfares. The district is further designed to provide for the convenience needs of persons living in the apartments with central services. This district is further designed so as to provide a zone of transition between these major thoroughfares and high traffic generators and other residential districts through the requirements of lower coverage which, in turn, will result in more open space.
