MU3–Mixed Use – High Density

This zoning form is designed to be applied along high traffic corridors surrounding downtown. Residential is permitted above the second level with levels one and two comprised of moderate to extensive retail and office. The MU-3 form encourages pedestrian connectivity by locating the building along the front of the lot and parking towards the rear. Amenities that improve pedestrian access and reduce automobile reliance are encouraged within the MU-3 zone. Examples include: bicycle infrastructure and storage, ride share pick-up/drop-off, transit utilization, etc.
