Other residential uses may be permitted within a MPR. <br />LU-P31: An adequate supply of affordable employee housing within a MPR, or within a reasonable <br />distance of a MPR, should be demonstrated. If this supply cannot be demonstrated, steps should be taken to <br />mitigate the lack of affordable housing supply, so that an unreasonable burden is not placed on the <br />affordable housing markets of surrounding communities. <br />LU-P32: Public facilities, utilities, and services will be provided to MPRs within UGAs, so long as all costs <br />associated with such extensions, capacity increases, and services are borne by the MPR.
