12.1.B Purpose of the HU-B1 Neighborhood Business District

The HU-B1 Neighborhood Business District is intended for commercial areas that predominantly serve the needs of the nearby residential neighborhoods. The general character of this type of development should be sensitive to and compatible with its residential surroundings. In addition to commercial uses, this district provides for single-family dwellings, two-family dwellings and can accommodate small-scale multi-family dwellings. This district also allows higher residential densities when a project is providing significant public benefits such as long-term affordable housing.
