Zoning
RS6
Single-Family Residential District
The purpose of the RS6 single-family district is to promote, preserve and protect neighborhoods intended primarily for single-family dwellings with traditional urban character. This district allows smaller lots, smaller setbacks and a higher lot coverage than the other single-family districts. The neighborhoods found in this district were platted and developed, in large part, in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. This district also allows traditional corner commercial establishments commonly found in more urban neighborhoods.
