(a) The purpose of the apartment districts is to allow for a range of apartment densities and a variety of living environments. The predominant uses include multi-family dwellings, such as common wall housing, walkup apartments, and high-rise apartments. Uses and activities that complement apartment use are permitted, including limited social services.
(b) The intent of the A-1 low density apartment district is to provide areas for low density, multi-family dwellings. It may be applied as a buffer between residential districts and other more intense, noncompatible districts. It would be applied throughout the city.
(c) The intent of the A-2 medium density apartment district is to provide areas for medium density, multi-family dwellings. It is intended primarily for concentrated urban areas where public services are centrally located and infrastructure capacities are adequate.
(d) The intent of the A-3 high density apartment district is to provide areas for high density, high-rise, multi-family dwellings. It is intended for central urban core areas where public services and large infrastructure capacities are present.
