The boundaries of the R-3 District are shown on the Official Zoning Map. R-3 zoning is generally located in relation to the following urban facilities and services:
(a) Collector or arterial streets;
(b) Public transportation;
(c) Shopping facilities;
(d) Schools;
(e) Parks and recreation areas;
(f) Public sewer and water facilities; and
(g) Police and fire protection.
The moderate population density of this R -3 District and the limited elevation of structures therein tend to make such District reasonably compatible with single-family and lesser density two-family residential areas, and such District can be located in close proximity thereto under good design principles. The R-3 District is also especially suited as a transition between lesser density residential areas such as single-family and two-family residential areas and those areas having medium high density multiple-family dwellings or commercial activities.
