17.85.010 Description and intent.
The R3 multifamily residential zoning district is established as a land use district for one-family, two-family, and multifamily dwellings and limited office uses where public water and sewer services are available. For the multifamily residential zoning district, in promoting the general purposes of this title, the specific intentions of this chapter are:
A. To encourage the construction of one-family, two-family, and multifamily dwellings;
B. To prohibit commercial and industrial land uses and any other use of the land which would interfere with the development or continuation of one-family, two-family, and multifamily dwellings in this district;
C. To encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that are not permitted under the provisions of this chapter;
D. To discourage any use which, because of its character or size, would create requirements and costs for public services, such as police and fire protection, water supply, and sewerage, before such services can adequately be provided; and
E. To discourage any use which would generate other than normal vehicular traffic on streets serving residents on those streets. [Ord. FY2016-06 §2, 2015; Ord. 83-17-O §4, 1983. Formerly §17.20.010].
