R-5
Urban Residential District
The R-5 Urban Residential District is intended to preserve a lower density urban district than R-6. Homes in this district are primarily mid-century 1½ story bungalows and any new constructions should match that smaller scale rather than the larger, more historic two-story homes in R-4 and R-6. Typical character types include Minimal Traditional, Cape Cod, and Neocolonial. Front- or side-facing gables with dormers are typical roof styles.
