RA-4

Single-Family District

It is the intent of the single-family districts to provide for single-family detached residential development at a variety of densities and lot sizes that are consistent with the existing and desirable future pattern of development in the city. Provision is made for a variety of residential densities in order to accommodate different residential preferences.; The use restrictions protect single-family detached residential development from the encroachment of incompatible land uses. At the same time, provision is made for a limited number of appropriate non-residential uses which may be established for the convenience of residents while still preserving the overall residential character of the districts.
