Section 107-74 - Modification of Permitted Use Regulations
For any development , the City Planning Commission may grant special permits to allow semi-detached or attached single-family residences in R2 Districts and attached single- or two-family residences in R3-1 Districts. As a condition for granting such special permits, the Commission shall find that:
(a) only by modifying the residential building type, the preservation of trees over six-inch caliper and of existing topography can be assured;
(b) by inclusion of the proposed residential building types, better standards of privacy and usable open space can be achieved; and
(c) if the zoning lot is located in the designated open space , the prohibition of development on the designated open space requires the permitted development to be concentrated in the remaining portion of the tract.
