R
Single-Family Detached Residence District
The R District is established to protect, promote, and maintain the development of single-family detached housing and limited public and institutional uses that are compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhood. The development standards and range of allowable uses for this district are designed to maintain a suitable environment for family living at the low density of development characteristic of the current pattern of development in the district, which consists of large lots with abundant open space. The R District includes one sub-district which allows the same uses but provides bulk provisions that reflect the specific attributes of the development pattern that results in lot width and lot area that are less than that of the R District but still larger than that typically found in any R1 sub-district.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Housing-Group
Housing-Single unit
Jul 26, 2011 • Active
Roof permi
Tear off the existing roofing material and install a new roof.
