Suburban Residential District

The purpose of this District is to provide areas for a variety of housing types, designed in a manner to create livable space in the urban setting that is protected from incompatible land uses and hazardous conditions, and buffered from commercial/industrial uses. Adequate facilities, such as roads, water and sanitation, fire protection, emergency service and public utilities shall be available to serve these areas. Growth should occur in a phased and contiguous manner to save on the costly, premature extension of basic infrastructure. The SR District is characterized by a variety of housing types within a range of affordability, including housing for the elderly, handicapped and other special populations, and other accessory uses which enhance the basic elements of a balanced residential area, such as schools, parks, playgrounds and neighborhood recreational facilities.; Development within this District should be designed to create neighborhoods in terms of scale and identity and as service units with adequate schools, parks and convenience retail; and with pedestrian, bicycle and automobile circulation that includes connections between neighborhoods and community facilities.; A licensed boarding house or rooming house may be operated in a zoned suburban residential area. The maximum number of occupants in a licensed boarding house or rooming house shall be limited to that number which will not produce excess automobiles, as determined by the Director.
