R-I
Residential District
The R-I Residential District is established to provide areas of primarily low- to moderate-density, single-family residential development along with other uses that are compatible with a residential environment such as recreational, educational, and religious facilities. This district is intended to implement the city comprehensive plan's suburban, medium-density residential future land use category with a density not to exceed 2 dwelling units per acre. This district is also intended to provide for new, high-quality infill residential development that maintains community character, and ensures stable, long-term property values and neighborhoods, at higher densities than the base density of the zoning district, subject to compatibility standards and/or pursuant to a specific neighborhood plan.
