R-1
Residential District
The R-1 Residential District is primarily intended to provide locations for single-family and two-family residential development and supporting recreational, community service, and educational uses in areas where public water and sewer services are available or will likely be provided in the future. This district is further intended to protect existing subdivisions from encroachment of incompatible land uses, and this district does not allow manufactured home parks.
