SR
Suburban Residential District
This district would accommodate single-family detached homes and twin dwellings in a suburban setting. Minimum lot size of 15,000 sq ft for single-family. This planning area will help ensure that open space is incorporated into future development by accommodating only lower density single-family residential development. It will also provide land for larger homes and allow flexibility in placement of homes on lots. The Suburban Residential areas attempt to balance the desire to avoid inappropriate high density development and the desire for more efficient use of the land, compatible with current residential preferences.
