Purpose. It is the intent of this district to control
the placement, design, use, and density of well-planned, residential
development which offers a variety of building types and a more efficient
overall use of land and, within these limits, to permit the optimum
amount of flexibility and variety in the design of such varying types
of residential structures including single- and two-family dwellings,
townhouses and apartment buildings. Within the intention of these
regulations, the following objectives are sought:
(1) To provide a more attractive and varied living environment
than would be possible through the strict application of R-8, R-15
and R-20 Residential Districts and TT Town Transition District requirements.
(2) To encourage developers to use a more creative approach
in the development of land and open space.
(3) To encourage variety in the physical development pattern
of residential areas.
