The residential district names and map symbols are intended to provide
a general indication of what is allowed in the district by denoting
the intensity, scale, and/or type of uses permitted.
A.
Low Density Residential (LDR) District. The purpose of the LDR District
is to permit the construction of larger-lot single-family developments
that do not compromise the existing pedestrian-friendly setting of
the Village. Churchville's neighborhoods are typically characterized
by sidewalks, streetlighting, street trees, and garages located at
the side or rear portions of the lots. The intent of the LDR District
is to allow for lower-density residential development while ensuring
the preservation and continuation of the traditional development pattern
of neighborhoods as identified in the Village's adopted Comprehensive
Plan.
B.
Traditional Village Residential (TVR) District. The purpose of the
TVR District is to preserve and enhance the existing traditional residential
settlement pattern of the Village. Churchville's traditional neighborhoods
predominantly consist of single-family dwellings on smaller, varied
lots with sidewalks, streetlighting, street trees, and garages located
to the rear of the property. These neighborhood design elements create
visually interesting, engaging, and walkable environments for residents.
The intent of this district is to ensure that future development and
investment is consistent with the traditional Village settlement pattern
and the recommendations of the Village's adopted Comprehensive Plan.
C.
Mixed Density Residential (MDR) District. The purpose of the MDR
District is to provide for a greater variety of housing choice that
is compatible with the Village's established residential areas. These
neighborhoods may contain a mix of single- or two-family homes, townhouses,
and multifamily dwellings that provide a suitable transition between
existing single-family neighborhoods and the Village's activity centers.
Developments within this district should reflect the traditional character
and walkability of the Village and provide for a variety of housing
types and densities as identified in the Village's adopted Comprehensive
Plan.

Table 250-13.
