Zoning description
The Neighborhood Mixed Use (NMX) district is coded to provide a mix of commercial and residential activities at the function center of neighborhoods. Small-scale multi-family developments may be allowed subject to a conditional zoning change. The NMX District should also encourage infill and redevelopment in established portions of the community and to serve as a transition between adjacent developed single-family uses and higher-intensity non-residential uses.
