The purpose of the R-3EC zone is to provide residential areas within the East Central Community (Central Bench national historic district) which reflect its unique historical development in terms of lot configuration, lot size, building architectural features, building and fencing materials, and building size. It will accommodate the development of dwelling type from single-family through multiple-family units with their associated necessary public services and activities, and to encourage government subsidized housing for the elderly at higher densities and in a wider range of residential areas. It is also to provide an orderly transition from less intensive, lower density uses to more intensive, higher density uses.
