Recommended Housing Strategy #1
Encourage Right-Sized Residential Density
Reduce minimum lot sizes and increase density requirements in all zones to encourage the development of more dense housing and reduce public facilities costs.
Ensure that minimum lot sizes in higher-density zones facilitate middle housing homeownership opportunities.
Research and amend development code requirements that may be impeding the development of middle housing, such as setbacks.
Clarify the relationship between density standards, requirements, and regulations and have clear language throughout the development code regarding density.
Recommended Housing Strategy #2
Align Comprehensive Plan Designations and Zones
2.1 Develop two different Comprehensive Plan residential designations: a Low-Density Plan Designation that aligns with R-1 zoning and a Medium-Density Plan Designation that aligns with R-2 and R-3 zoning.
Recommended Housing Strategy #3
Encourage Housing Patterns that Support Neighborhood Commercial
3.1
3.2 Clarify the criteria for implementing neighborhood commercial in the PUD standards.
Allow mixed use buildings with ground floor commercial, or residential on the side or behind commercial in the R-3 zone, in conjunction with more flexible development standards.
Recommended Housing Strategy #4
Develop Affordable and Accessible Middle Housing
4.1
4.2
Encourage the development of middle housing units that are accessible for residents who have physical disabilities. Programs could include offering tax incentives, and/or SDC exemptions.
Encourage the development of middle housing units that are affordable for residents with low and middle incomes. Programs could include requiring a certain percentage of affordable units in new developments, offering tax incentives, and/or SDC exemptions.
Cottage Cluster
Recommended Housing Strategy #5
Design Standards for Middle Housing
5.1
5.2
Implement clear and objective design standards for middle housing types (duplexes, townhomes, triplexes, quadplexes, cottage clusters).
Encourage a diversity of middle housing types that have aesthetic variety and are aligned with Dayton’s small-town character.

Next Steps

3. Dayton will be applying for a DLCD grant to update the HCA
