R-3
Single-Family Residential District
The R-3, Single-Family Residential District, is intended primarily for single-family residential development and for associated educational and institutional uses. The permitted uses and standards of these districts are intended to achieve the following objectives: To encourage the continued use of the land for single-family dwellings which are compatible with the established character of the Citys dominant neighborhood type; To prohibit uses that would disrupt the character of the existing single-family neighborhoods; To encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses under the provisions of this chapter; To discourage land uses which would generate traffic on minor local streets atypical of that in single family neighborhoods; To accommodate low-intensity non-residential facilities where such uses could be compatible with the neighborhoods within this district.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Housing-Single unit
Housing-Senior
Bed & breakfast
Park & open space
