The purpose of the RD—Residential Duplex district is to implement the “medium density” designation described in the greater Omak comprehensive plan. This district is intended to include provisions for duplex, triplex, apartments, planned developments and manufactured home parks in areas within the urban growth area as identified in the greater Omak area comprehensive plan. They are either within or immediately adjacent to the existing corporate limits, and are either presently developed and served by city utilities or are larger, undeveloped parcels (suitable for medium density developments) and have access to city services. Aside from allowing medium density developments through the planned development or conditional use permit process, this district is similar to the RS—Residential Single Unit district in which activities are allowed or prohibited dependent on their compatibility with the primary use of the district for residential purposes. (Ord. 1286 (part), 1995).

The district use chart, Section 18.11.050, sets forth those uses which are permitted outright, require a conditional use permit, or planned development approval in the RD district. (Ord. 1286 (part), 1995).

Lot size and coverage, setbacks, height and density requirements. Table 1.0, Section 18.16.020, sets forth requirements for lot size, building coverage, setbacks, height and density requirements for the RD district. (Ord. 1286 (part), 1995).

The following accessory uses which are customarily incidental to the above uses, and carried out only in conjunction with such uses, are allowed in the RD—Residential Duplex district:

(1)    Housing for people with functional disabilities, including supported living arrangements for two or fewer persons (excluding owner/care provider);

(2)    Amateur radio antenna. (Ord. 1286 (part), 1995).
