Single-Family and Missing Middle Residential Objective Design Standards
The Antioch Multi-Family Objective Design Standards provide key, objective requirements for developing single-family and missing middle residential development. Objective design standards are written to have “no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant and the public official prior to submittal.” These objective design standards aim to provide a clear and straightforward application and approval process for housing construction within the City.
