a. "U" (Urban Center): The RM-U Zone provides for high-density, urban-
scale multi-family residential development that supports the downtown and allows for alternative
transportation mode choices. Development standards promote a pedestrian scale environment

commercial centers. The residential scale and density is consistent with the scale and intensity of
the Center Suburban zone. Density ranges from 10 to 20 du/acre.

nearby commercial centers. The residential scale and density is consistent with the scale and
intensity of the Center Neighborhood zone. Density ranges from 10 to 15 du/acre.
