Development standards for subdivisions address height, density, open space, parking, and setbacks. It also establishes a mapped Residential Incentive Overlay District to incentivize residential infill in specific locations (§13-83.60 et seq.). District developments standards address lot area, maximum density, open space, maximum building height, landscaping, setbacks, building projections, building separation, and parking.
