A
Residential District
The A Residential Districts are composed of low density residential areas of the Township, plus certain open areas where similar residential development appears likely to occur. The regulations for these districts are designed to stabilize and protect the essential characteristics of the area, protect the amenities of certain areas of the Township where the pattern has already been established with single-family development on relatively large lots and promote and encourage a suitable environment for family life. To these ends, development is restricted to conventional low density single-family detached dwellings and related land uses.
