V
Village District
The Purpose of the V District is to recognize the existence of the small lots in the Village of Crosswicks and the Hamlets of Chesterfield and Sykesville. It is intended to permit dwellings on small lots in order to reduce the level of nonconformity among existing lots and to preserve the character of these villages and hamlets.
