    Hello, thanks for your question. The proposed density of 6 stories for the Affordable Housing Acceleration Initiative is currently allowed under the Residential – Multiple Unit Buildings (RM) designation in the City’s OCP. This does not include areas designated for Townhomes or Ground-Oriented Infill (RGO/RT). You can see a map of these areas within the City here.
