A limited Multi-Family District is established in order to provide a zoning use district within which one (1), two (2) and multi-family buildings may locate as compatible land uses. This is a district of low population density equivalent to the population densities of a Two-Family District. The yard and lot area requirements are such as will afford maximum protection to the various permitted uses. To secure these ends, a building permit for the construction of an apartment house or group of apartment houses shall not be issued until the Planning Commission has approved the plans for the proposed development. Such plans shall include a site plan showing the location and size of the buildings and their relationship to other buildings on adjoining lots. The plan shall also show the design of that area to be devoted to off-street parking, the number of off-street parking spaces, a system of vehicular traffic circulation and points of access from adjoining streets. The plan shall also show landscape treatment at the boundaries of the proposed development indicating the type, size and location of trees, shrubs and other landscaping. In making its determination the Planning Commission shall require conformance to the provisions of this section, and shall be satisfied that the proposed development plans will provide the maximum residential amenities as applied to the adjoining lots as well as the proposed development itself.
