R-1
Residential - 1 District
From the late 1950s to the present, the type of housing in the Borough changed substantially from that found in the central core of the Borough to that found in those areas other than the central core.; The primary type of housing previously was single-family detached dwellings on small lots. Such dwellings were constructed of wood or similar materials, with very small yards.; That changed in the 1950s and continues to this day, so that almost all the construction of single-family detached dwellings has been on substantially larger lots 12,000 square feet or more, and a substantial number of those dwellings have been built of brick, stone or masonry and have significant setbacks and yards. The purpose of the R-1 District is to recognize the historical evolution of those types of dwellings in those areas and to preserve that legitimate dwelling type for future generations. The Borough has made adequate provisions for other types of dwellings in its other districts and believes that the preservation of single-family detached dwellings on what are relatively large lots although quite small compared to surrounding municipalities and surrounding townships is a legitimate community development objective of the Borough that shall be pursued.
