R-6
Single-Family Residential District-6
The level land in the city of Lafayette has been substantially developed, and it is necessary for the general welfare of the city to preserve hills and open space, to prevent erosion of creek banks and hillsides, and in general to retain the rural nature of the city. In order to accomplish these ends, it is necessary to prevent the creation of additional residential lots which are smaller than 10,000 sq ft in size. Therefore, although this article prescribes regulations for lots as small as 6,000 sq ft in size, many of which now exist, it requires newly subdivided lots in the R-6 district to contain not less than 10,000 sq ft; and it prohibits the placement of additional land into the R-6 district.
