What are the local zoning regulations for 900 Key Ave ?

RM-1 (RESIDENTIAL- MIXED, LOW DENSITY)

RM-1 districts include a mix of housing types similar to those in RH districts, but also have a substantial number of apartment buildings, expanding the variety of structures and the range of unit sizes.

The number of residential units in the RM-1 district is calculated based on the size of the lot. The minimum allowed is 3 units per lot, or 1 unit for every 1,067 sq ft of lot area, whichever is greater. The maximum allowed is 1 unit for every 800 sq ft of lot area.

Not allowed if it’s below the minimum density specified in the municipal code.

Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.

Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.

Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.

Outdoor space in these districts is typically available at both ground and upper levels, regardless of the structure’s age or form. Shopping facilities and transit lines are often within short distance, and nonresidential uses are commonly present to serve the needs of residents.

The primary use of the Residential - Mixed, Low Density zone is residential. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.

Permitted Residential Uses: ADU and JADU, intermediate length occupancy use, single room occupancy, dwelling units, student housing, senior housing, group housing, and homeless shelter.

Permitted Non-Residential Uses: Agriculture, passive outdoor recreation, child care facility, public facilities, and residential care facility.
