The intent of this
is to allow for and encourage high density infill of the warehouse triangle with transit oriented and mixed use . The DL-AZ will go further than the infill incentive
in granting flexibility and incentives in many areas. Multifamily residential uses will be allowed in current I-1
, allowable
and densities are increased and will be exempt from non-residential parking requirements.
