R-3
Suburban Single-Family Residential District
The R-3 Suburban Single-Family Residential District is intended to provide for single-family residential development, at densities not to exceed two dwelling units per net acre. This district is further intended to be used for residentially platted lots already existing at the time of the adoption of this chapter and so identified for this density range on the adopted City Comprehensive Plan or component thereof. Suburban residential lots are typically served by private on-site sewage disposal systems and private wells.
