The Board of Trustees reviewed and discussed the use of dormitories in an R—2 Multiple Family zoning district and the density require ments.A letter was received from the Town Attorney stating that dormitories are a permitted use in an R—2 zone.Town Engineer/ Planner Widmer pointed out that an accommodations use on an R—2 zoned tract platted or annexed after 1970 (approximately)requires 2.6 times more land for the same density as an R—2 zoned tract platted prior to 1970.The strict density requirements for newly platted R—2 tracts makes it economically infeasible to develop multiple family housing.Bill Van Horn appeared speaking in favor of revising density requirements for multiple family uses in the R—2 zone and commented that a revision would not affect the existing nonconforming R—2 zones.The Board of Trustees directed the staff to propose new density requirements for multiple family and accommodation uses in the R—2 zone in an ordinance to be submitted to the Code Committee.As guidelines for the new density requirements,the Board suggested that a large square footage be required for the first two units but that the square footage requirements for additional units be greatly reduced. The Board also recommended that the special review procedure not be used.Finally,the Board of Trustees gave authority to the Code Committee to set a public hearing for the November Planning Commission meeting following its review of the proposed ordinance.
