The proposal meets the zone reclassification criteria in KMC These areas are characterized by bulkier buildings, a greater range of building heights and less automobile ownership than lower-density areas.

Like lower-density residence districts, however, the character of these neighborhoods varies widely. Some are defined entirely by rowhouses, others by low apartment houses or high-rise buildings and still others by a mixture of all building types. Moderate- and higher-density residential districts are broadly characterized as either contextual or non-contextual. Non-contextual districts are generally mapped where there is a diverse mix of building types and no predominant context.

The bulk regulations for these districts, introduced in , encourage the development of buildings without height limits set back from the street and surrounded by open space. In R6 through R9 districts, the bulk regulations are known as height factor regulations, where the size of a building is determined by a complex set of rules involving the interrelationship between a range of height factors, floor area ratios and open space ratios.

Instead of a single floor area ratio for each district, higher floor area ratios are allowed for tall buildings on lots where large areas of open space can be provided. Lower floor area ratios are allowed on smaller lots where less open space is possible. In general, the larger the size of the lot, the taller the building permitted. In R10 districts there are no height factors or open space ratios.

Each zoning lot, regardless of its size, has a floor area ratio of Open space is controlled by a lot coverage requirement. There are no height limits for non-contextual buildings in R6 through R10 non-contextual districts. Instead, a building is not allowed to penetrate a sky exposure plane , which slopes inwards from a specified base height above the street line. Therefore, the further a building is set back from the street line, the taller it can be.

In R9 and R10 districts, as well as commercial districts with an R9 or R10 residential district equivalent, developers may choose to build pursuant to tower regulations, which allow a building to penetrate a sky exposure plane.

Buildings of great height are possible if built as towers. In response to concerns of excessive tower height in predominantly residential areas, tower-on-a-base regulations were introduced in All residential towers on wide streets in R9 and R10 districts, and C1 and C2 districts with an R9 or R10 residential district equivalent, must be built above a building base of between five and eight stories that is built at the street line.

Special floor area rules ensure that the height of the towers does not exceed approximately 35 stories. The Quality Housing bulk regulations allow higher lot coverage, and in many instances greater FAR in exchange for height limits that are often more compatible with the surrounding context. The bulk regulations for these districts are known as Quality Housing regulations. The program assigns a single floor area ratio to each district, and includes bulk regulations that typically produce buildings that are shorter and have higher lot coverage than height factor buildings.

Height limits, rules for the placement of the street wall of a building in relation to neighboring buildings, and rules governing the minimum and maximum height of a street wall are among the contextual regulations that promote the development of buildings that are compatible with their surroundings.
