The principle objective and purpose to be served by this classification and its application is to permit a limited increase in population density in those areas to which this classification applies by permitting low density multiple dwellings and duplexes, while, at the same time, by means of the standards and requirements set forth herein, maintaining a desirable family living environment by establishing a minimum lot area and yards and open spaces. A related consideration is to make it possible to more efficiently and economically design and install all physical public service facilities in terms of size and capacity to adequately and permanently meet the needs resulting from a defined intensity of land use.
