Residential District

The residential district is intended to be used where concentrations of single- and twofamily homes have developed, are likely to develop or are proposed to be developed in the unsewered areas of the town of Rudolph. The purpose of this district is to provide areas in the town of Rudolph where a higher density lifestyle can be developed and preserved with protection from encroachment of other, incompatible uses. Certain neighborhood facilities are allowed to provide support services to the residential uses, including churches, schools, recreational facilities and libraries, provided the requirements of this ordinance can be met with respect to parking, lighting, signing, etc. It is the intent that this district not allow uses which will be a detriment to the health and safety of persons living in the R-1 districts or which will have a negative impact on property values of the permitted uses, such as commercial and industrial uses that generate traffic or keeping of farm animals where odors and noise may be offensive in the higher density developments. Because of local soil conditions and potable water availability, dwelling units larger than twofamily will be encouraged to locate in areas where public sewer and water is, or is proposed to be available.
