Residential Low Density Zone

This zone is intended for low-density, single-family residential areas, which will provide a suitable environment for family life for residents.

All new development in this zone shall be compatible with the immediate residential neighborhood with respect to scale, mass and height. The purpose of this zone is to allow low-profile, single-family residences that preserve existing public and private views and minimize building mass and bulk in a manner that is sensitive to their terrain and to environmental constraints.
