R-4A
Single-Family Preservation And Infill District
This district is intended to regulate the height, building coverage, and impervious surface coverage of residential dwelling units in the older established neighborhoods of the Village. Specifically, the district's restrictions are intended to prevent the overcrowding of land, ensure proper living conditions, assure the adequate provision of light, air and open spaces, and to foster and preserve the nature, character, and quality of existing neighborhoods, while providing property owners opportunities for infill development on vacant lots or redevelopment of lots with existing structures. In particular this district is intended to prevent the further proliferation of structures that do not conform to the general height, bulk, and scale of existing structures.
