A. The R-34 District is intended as a high density residential district, permitting thirty four (34) units per gross acre and increased height, that the City has the option of granting, through the special use permit procedure, to any property zoned R-17, C-17, C-17L or LM. This designation is only allowed through the special use permit and is not a stand-alone zoning district. To warrant consideration, the property must in addition to having the R-17, C-17, C-17L or LM designation meet the following requirements:
1. Be in close proximity to an arterial, as defined in the Coeur d'Alene transportation plan (KMPO’s current Metropolitan Transportation Plan), sufficient to handle the amount of traffic generated by the request in addition to that of the surrounding neighborhood; and the project and accessing street must be designed in such a way so as to minimize vehicular traffic through adjacent residential neighborhoods.
2. Be in close proximity to shopping, schools and park areas (if it is an adult only apartment complex proximity to schools is not required).
B. This district is appropriate as a transition between R-17 and commercial/industrial.
C. Single-family detached and duplex housing are not permitted in this district.
D. Project review (chapter 17.07, article IV of this title) is required for all subdivisions and for all residential, civic, commercial, service and industry uses except residential uses for four (4) or fewer dwellings.
