What does MR zoning allow in Franklin?
MR allows a broader residential mix: houses, duplexes, multiplexes, and townhouses. New developments have compatibility rules: the first building next to an existing house lot must be a house or duplex unless it is part of the same development, and townhouses plus multiplex units may not exceed 50 percent of total dwelling units.
