The purpose of the RB district is to achieve the same character, stability, and sound residential environment as intended for the RR, RAA, and RA residential districts. The difference between the three previously mentioned and the RB district is that a higher density of population will be permitted through the construction and occupancy of one-family dwelling structures on smaller lot area. There is no intent to promote by these regulations a residential district of lower quality than in the RR, RAA, and RA districts. This section applies to the RB district.
