Wells City Zoning Code

R-2 MULTI-FAMILY

RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT ZONE

§ 152.050 PURPOSE.

The R-2 District is intended to permit the reuse of infill lots in the older developed areas of the community, and to allow for greater density in the form of multi-family, townhouse, condominium, and manufactured dwellings. The goal is to preserve some land that can be developed to serve the city's multi-family needs without creating incompatible situations. To protect this goal, permitted uses are few and conditional uses should be weighed in view of their impact on future multi-family development.
