Title

Amending Sections 28.078 and 28.079 of the Madison General Ordinances to eliminate the Residential Point System for Downtown Residential 1 (DR1) and Downtown Residential 2 (DR2) districts.

Body

DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS:    This proposed ordinance change eliminates MGO subsections 28.078(3) and 28.079(3), the Residential Point System for Downtown Residential 1 (DR1) and Downtown Residential 2 (DR2) districts. The Residential Point System was designed to implement recommendations by the Downtown Plan to encourage larger units. The system has not been effective in creating family housing units, but instead is an obstruction to providing more housing in the DR1 and DR2 districts.
