Multifamily Merger (RMF-35 and RMF-45)

Salt Lake City is proposing to update the RMF-35 (Moderate Density Multi-Family) and RMF-45 (Moderate/High Density Multi-Family) zoning districts by combining them into a single district.

This change aims to promote the development of more affordable and attainable housing while supporting residents in existing moderate-density neighborhoods. The primary focus is to fulfill the intent of the RMF-35 and RMF-45 zoning districts by facilitating more moderate-density housing, while retaining neighborhood character and preserving existing units.

Commercial & Mixed-Use Zoning District Consolidation

Salt Lake City is proposing to update its zoning ordinance and zoning map by consolidating up to 27 existing commercial, form-based, and mixed-use zoning districts into six new mixed-use (MU) districts.

This effort seeks to streamline zoning regulations, clarify language, and integrate missing design standards. The goal is to create a more manageable code for the city to administer and increase accessibility and understanding for the public. The new mixed-use districts will resemble current ones but will feature adjustments to setbacks, building height, lot coverage, permitted land uses, and related provisions.
