Residential Single-Family District

The purpose and intent of the residential single-family districts (RSF) is to provide lands primarily for single-family residences. These districts are intended to be single-family residential areas of low density. The nature of the use of property is the same in all of these districts. Variation among the RSF-1, RSF-2, RSF-3, RSF-4, RSF-5 and RSF-6 districts is in requirements for density, lot area, lot width, yards, height, floor area, lot coverage, parking, landscaping and signs. Certain structures and uses designed to serve the immediate needs of the single-family residential development in the RSF districts such as governmental, educational, religious, and noncommercial recreational uses are permitted as conditional uses as long as they preserve and are compatible with the single-family residential character of the RSF district[s]. The RSF districts correspond to and implement the urban mixed use land use designation on the future land use map of the Collier County GMP. The maximum density permissible in the residential single-family (RSF) districts and the urban mixed use land use designation shall be guided, in part, by the density rating system contained in the future land use element of the Collier County GMP. The maximum density permissible or permitted in the RSF district shall not exceed the density permissible under the density rating system, except as permitted by policies contained in the future land use element.
