Analysis
Currently, multiple principal residential buildings may be located on a single lot in an RS6, RT3, or RT4 zoning district. Under this ordinance, any creation of a multiple-building situation on a lot in one of these districts after the effective date of the ordinance would require special use approval from the board of zoning appeals.
