RESOURCE MANAGEMENT OVERLAY
Residential Single-Family High Density District
It is the intent of the RS-8 Residential Single-Family High Density District to establish a high density per acre for single-family dwellings where public infrastructure is sufficient to support such development and to stabilize and protect the district's residential character in areas of existing high density single-family development while promoting a suitable environment for single-family living. Non-single-family development normally required to provide the basic elements of a balanced and attractive residential area is also permitted.
Directions: I-240 East to Exit 8 into Oakley. Turn RT onto Fairview Rd. Turn RT on Cedar St. (across from school). Cedar becomes Wood Ave. Follow Wood to RT on Sayles Rd. #23 down on left. 2 car pull off.
