R-1
Residential District
It is the intent of the R-1 District, as outlined by the East Bradford Township Comprehensive Plan, to support the preservation of critical natural resources, such as streams, floodplains, wet soils, variable groundwater yield areas and conditionally suitable soil for on-lot sewage disposal systems; to encourage continued agricultural, open space and conservation uses; and to provide for continued low-density residential development that is compatible with established land use patterns. The R-1 District establishes maximum density standards which: Provide for low-density residential uses on a lot-by-lot basis, as well as an open space development option that encourages the preservation of open space ancillary to such development; and; Promote the conservation of surface water and groundwater supplies, soils for on-lot sewage disposal systems and the control of soil erosion and flooding.
