R-85
Residence Zone
The R-85 Zone is intended to permit and promote residential land uses within or near the village area of the Township, including some of the Townships oldest residential neighborhoods as well as some more recent residential development. It is intended to preserve and or encourage the village residential building elements, historic character and relationships that characterize some of the older portions of this zone district e.g., open front porches and stoops, lower building heights and reduced front setbacks, while providing adequate accommodation for expansion of existing dwellings as well as for new infill residential construction to meet contemporary household demands. These zone regulations are intended to promote the creation of a residential environment that encourages a sense of security, community and social interaction.
