R-1C
Single-Family Residence District
The R-1C Residence District is intended to provide primarily for the establishment of areas of higher density single-family detached dwelling units while recognizing the potential compatibility of two-family dwelling units as special uses. Densities of approximately eight dwelling units per acre are allowed. This district may be applied to newly developing areas as well as the older residential areas of the City where larger houses have been or can be converted from single-family to two-family residences to extend the economic life of these structures and allow the owners to justify the expenditures for repairs and modernization.
