One and Two Family Residential District

This district is designed to provide suitable areas for single-family and duplex residential development at medium density. Residential development will consist of single detached dwelling structures and duplexes, except when otherwise permitted as a planned unit, and other structures as are accessory thereto. This district also includes community facilities, public utilities, and open uses which serve specifically the residents of these districts, or that are benefited by an open residential environment without creating objectionable or undesirable influences upon residential developments. Further, it is the intent of this ordinance that this district be located so that the provision of appropriate urban services can be physically and economically facilitated, and so that provision is made for the orderly expansion and maintenance of urban residential development throughout the planning jurisdiction. It is the express purpose of this ordinance to exclude from this district all buildings or other structures and uses having commercial characteristics, whether operated for profit or otherwise, except that conditional uses and home occupations specifically provided by these regulations for this district shall be considered as not having such characteristics if they otherwise conform to the provisions of this ordinance.
