Planning Commission Action
1. Multiple -Family Residential (R-3) parking requirements:
a) Determined that parking requirements based on the number of
bedrooms is more intuitive and appropriate.
b) The proposed ratio requires more spaces than the Downtown
Specific Plan, the Mixed -Use, and the Housing Overlays.
c) Typical development in the R-3 zone involves 2 and 3-bedroom
units, which would require the same parking as under current
code.
