§ 16.20.020.5. Introduction to NS districts.

The NS districts are the NS-1, NS-2, and NS-E districts. The standards for the NS districts are intended to allow for additions and improvements, while respecting the existing development pattern and the character of the neighborhoods.

16.20.020.5.2. Neighborhood Suburban-2 (NS-2).

In the NS-2 district, single-family homes are the principal use. Additional design requirements apply which will ensure that new development is compatible with the higher level of architectural legacy and the established character of these areas.

16.20.020.5.3. Neighborhood Suburban Estate (NS-E).

The NS-E district is the least dense of the NS districts. Single-family homes are the principal use; however, accessory dwelling units are allowed on the same lot as the principal residence with a maximum density of two units per acre. These homes generally exhibit an exceptionally high level of architecture and are on some of the largest single-family lots in the City.
