MSR
Mixed-Use Single-Family Residential District
The MSR Mixed Use Single-Family Residential District is composed of medium to high density residential developments of ten acres or more, along with other areas with special considerations where it has been shown that existing land use has included diverse types of single family dwellings, including manufactured and industrial housing and smaller dwelling units. The intent of this district is to provide areas in which manufactured homes can be intermingled with site built homes. Such development is encouraged along existing public facilities, but provisions are made for areas which require individual wells and/or septic tanks. The district is not designed to be used for individual lots with manufactured homes, and such zoning is prohibited.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Housing-Group
Housing-Single unit
