RSF
Single-Family Residential District
It is the intent of the town commission to introduce and maintain certain elements of human scale to the proportion of single-family residential dwellings within the town. As used in this land development code, human scale refers to architectural elements of construction, such as windows, doors, entryways, ceiling heights, roofs, building envelope and overall height, and the keeping of such elements in an approximate 1:1 relationship with the scale of the human body. This is being done in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the community, and to provide adequate light, air, and separation between buildings. In addition, the town commission is seeking to harmonize the building character within the community by restricting the use of large and overstated, or overbearing building elements.
