Residence District
It is the purpose of this district to make provisions for single-family residential development, allowing moderate suburban-type densities when public sewer service is used; to encourage the preservation of open space and natural resources through cluster development; to maintain the identity and character of existing suburban-type residential neighborhoods; and to allow for a logical transition from the low-density portions of the Township to existing higher-intensity development.
