Zoning
R-1
One-Family Residence District
The R-1 districts are composed mainly of areas containing one-family dwellings and open areas where such development seems likely to occur. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the districts by prohibiting all commercial activities, to encourage a suitable neighborhood environment for family life by including among the permitted uses such facilities as schools and churches, to prevent overcrowding of the land by requiring certain minimum yard and other open spaces for all buildings, and to avoid excessive population density by requiring a certain minimum building site area for each dwelling unit.
