Low-Density Residential
The Low-Density Residential district is established as a district in which the principal use of the land is for single-family residential, two-family dwelling units, and townhomes. It is intended to provide and protect low-density residential areas for those desiring that type of environment. Residential density may not exceed two units per acre unless provided as townhomes meeting the dimensional requirements of Chapter 3, in which case residential density may not exceed four units per acre.
