A. Intent. The Residential High Density (RHD) district allows for a more dense development pattern and is intended to allow for a mixture of housing types, including multifamily. The RHD zoning district is intended to be utilized in areas that feature a design and scale that encourage townhouse/attached single family, duplex/triplex/quadplex, and multifamily development and may permit compatible uses as permitted in Section 7:Permissible Uses and Standards.
B. Standards. The standards that apply to RHD districts, which are intended to promote more dense development featuring attached residential and multifamily, are defined in Table 4.2.4. below.
C. Density. Maximum permitted density is ten (10) dwelling units per acre.
D. Design Standards. Multifamily developments may require additional design standards in accordance with Section 8.7: Design Standards, of this UDO.
