R1
One-Family Detached Dwellings District
The R-1 district, one-family detached dwellings, is designed to protect and maintain those residential areas now developed primarily with one-family detached dwellings on relatively large lots and adjoining vacant areas likely to be developed for such purposes. It will enable the city to continue to provide a restricted type of environment which would otherwise be found only in suburban areas.
