for areas appropriate for a mix of housing types. Typical residential land uses
include single- and multi -family dwelling units, either attached or detached. The
allowable residential density ranges from 8.1 to 20 dwelling units per acre. The
RMD zoning district is consistent with the Medium -Density Residential land use
designation of the General Plan.
C. RHD (High -Density Residential) District. The RHD zoning district is intended for
areas appropriate for high-density multi -family dwelling units. The allowable
residential density ranges from 15 to 35 units per acre. The RHD zoning district is

Plan.
