In R3-1 Districts, including #Commercial Districts# mapped within such #Residence Districts#, for any #large-scale residential
development#, the City Planning Commission, by special permit, may allow the #open space ratio# otherwise required for such
#large-scale residential development# as a whole to be reduced by not more than 20 percent, may allow the maximum number of
#dwelling units# to be increased by not more than 10 percent and may allow the maximum #residential# #floor area ratio# to be
increased by not more than 15 percent, provided that:

(a)    at least one acre or 20 percent of the total #open space#, whichever is more, is provided in common areas meeting the
        requirements of Section 78-52 (Common Open Space) and not used for off-street parking;

(b)    the #large-scale residential development# qualifies for a bonus in accordance with the provisions of Section 78-32; and

(c)    the Commission makes the findings required in Section 78-32 and in paragraph (e) of Section 78-313 (Findings).

Such authorizations shall be instead of, rather than in addition to, those which would be allowable under the provisions of
Section 78-32.
