15-32-1: PURPOSE:

The purpose and characteristics of each zoning category within the downtown residential multiple-family zones are described in this section.

   A.   Residential Multiple-Family Vertical (R-MFV):

      1.   Characteristics: The Residential Multiple-family Vertical (R-MFV) zone includes buildings with multiple-family residential development that serve as a transition to adjacent neighborhoods. Development focuses on multiple-family apartment buildings up to six (6) stories high along with certain commercial uses such as neighborhood-serving retail and personal services.

      2.   Purpose: The purpose of the Multiple-family Vertical zone is to provide housing opportunities around Ogden's downtown and incentivize additional residential density in key locations throughout downtown. Development in this zone is meant to reflect the vertical mass and form of structures found within downtown while providing residential focused uses.

   B.   Residential Multiple-Family Horizontal (R-MFH):

      1.   Characteristics: The Residential Multiple-Family Horizontal (R-MFH) zone includes buildings with multiple-family residential density downtown that is of a smaller scale to protect the character of adjacent neighborhoods. Development focuses on multiple-family apartments, townhomes or brownstones up to three (3) stories in height with certain commercial uses such as neighborhood serving retail and services.

      2.   Purpose: The purpose of the Multiple-Family Horizontal zone is to provide housing opportunities around downtown that act as a transition from the size and scale of downtown Ogden to adjacent neighborhoods. This zone allows for low-rise residential with a focus on activation of the public realm along the street level to enhance walkability within downtown Ogden.

15-32-2: LAND USES:

   A.   General:

      1.   Land use categories are used to establish which types of uses are permitted (P), conditional (C), or not permitted (N) in individual zones. This section classifies land uses and activities into categories based on the common functional, product, or physical characteristics. It also identifies special considerations and requirements that apply to different uses.

      2.   If a proposed land use cannot be identified within one of the categories provided by this section, the decision maker may, at its discretion, refer to appropriate outside sources, such as the Land-Based Classification Standards (LBCS) of the American Planning Association or the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

      3.   If a use can be classified within more than one category, the use shall be classified in the category that is more restrictive. For example, if food and beverage sales is a permitted use and a drive-up store is not permitted, then food and beverage sales with a drive-up window would be not permitted.

      4.   Table 15-32-2.1 outlines the land uses that shall apply in each downtown residential zone. Uses that are permitted are designated with a "P". Uses that are conditional are designated with a "C". Uses that are not permitted are designated with an "N".
