R-3
Residential District
It is the intent of the R-3 District, as outlined by the East Bradford Township Comprehensive Plan, to encourage medium-density residential development which is compatible with established land use patterns; located in areas of the Township which contain environmental features generally suitable for such development; and accessible to transportation systems and community facilities appropriate for such development. The R-3 District is designed to provide a transition between areas of low- and high-density residential use and encourage and promote paced development throughout the Township by permitting medium-density residential uses to fully develop in the R-3 District before the lower density areas of the Township. The R-3 District provides the flexibility of residential uses on a lot-by-lot basis as well as an open space development option that encourages the preservation of open space, surface and groundwater supplies, and soils for on-lot sewage disposal systems.
