<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all - I am working with the Mansfield Planning Board on an update to their existing multi-family zoning bylaw. They currently have 15 units/acre by-right and then are proposing to up that to 30 units/acre by-right and up to 60 units/acre with
a mixed use component and other incentives. <u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">For a number of qualitative reasons, the PB thinks that 25% of the ground floor area should be non-residential. Feedback from a couple landowners say that is too high. In lieu of a bona fide market analysis, I thought I'd poll my peers... <u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you have a mixed use district, what are your non-residential requirements? <u></u><u></u></p>
