R-2
Low Density Residential District
The R-2, Low Density Residential District, is established to provide for an environment of predominantly low density residential uses, including detached and attached single family homes, duplexes, three- and four-unit multi-family dwellings, along with directly related, complementary uses. It is intended that where an R-s, Low Density Residential District directly abuts a zoning district of higher or lower density, a transition from existing uses to new uses be provided. Such transition may be accomplished by a continuation of similar uses to the extent possible given allowable uses within the district, landscape buffering as provided in Chapter 4, or both, as required by the City in conjunction with plan approval.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Housing-Single unit
