Marine Commercial - Two (MC-2) Overlay Zone. 1. Purpose. The Marine Commercial - Two MC-2 Overlay Zone is established to provide sites for low-rise development of attached residential units (townhouses) at medium to high densities. Such developments are intended to serve as a transition between areas of detached residences and areas of more intensive commercial development. This Overlay Zone is intended as a first phase of a more comprehensive land use planning strategy for the revitalization of the Broadway and Channel Drive area. In particular the MC-2 Overlay provides opportunities for townhouse development along Chicago and Baltimore Avenues, which serve as key pedestrian linkages between the residential area south of Broadway and the marine commercial uses north of Channel Drive. (a) The MC-2 Zone is an overlay zone whereby, in addition to the requirements of the underlying zoning district, the following requirements shall apply. In the event of a conflict with the requirements of the underlying zone, the provisions of the MC-2 Overlay Zone shall apply. 2. Definitions. A "townhouse unit" is a single dwelling unit, situated at ground level, served by its own exclusive exterior entrance, and attached to one or more other such units by fire walls or fire separation walls.
