for open space on the same zoning lot with residential development
and by providing for off-street parking spaces.

as far as possible, by controls over the spacing and height of buildings
and other structures.

recreational, health, and similar facilities which serve the needs
of the nearby residents or which generally perform their own activities
more effectively in a residential environment without creating objectionable
influences.

To provide freedom of architectural design in order to encourage
the development of more attractive and economic building forms.
H.
