Intended to provide areas for the development of apartments, condominiums,
townhouses, or other group dwellings at a maximum density of fifteen (15)
units per acre.
b. The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which
it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or
welfare, or be materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity in that:

located.
(2) There is sufficient infrastructure and public services to accommodate
the proposed residential development within the project vicinity.
