A density increase chapter is established to provide a means whereby an increase in the number of dwelling units may be achieved beyond that amount permitted in the base density of the R-2 and R-3 residential districts. The intent is to create a flexible means by which developers may voluntarily incorporate architectural creativity, site and aesthetic considerations in the design of residential developments that achieve a more efficient site plan, result in a physical development which blends more favorably or harmoniously with neighboring uses, uses within the vicinity, and increase the quality of the living environment for its future residents.
