A.
General. The general intent of this article is to set forth land
uses or activities which are permitted in residential areas in the
City of Fond du Lac, to specify the zoning district in which each
use or activity will be permitted, with or without special conditions,
or after a special use permit has been granted, and to establish density
and bulk regulations within each district.
B.
R-1 Single-Family Residential District. The intent of the R-1 Residential
District is to set forth those land uses and activities which are
permitted in areas where one-family housing development at a relatively
low or moderate density is the desired predominant land use.
C.
R-2 Single-Family and Two-Family Residential District. The intent
of the R-2 Residential District is to set forth those land uses and
activities which are permitted in areas which can provide a transition
between one-family and multiple-family residential districts and where
one-family and two-family development at moderate density is the desired
predominant land use.
D.
R-3 Central Area Residential District. The intent of the R-3 Residential
District is to set forth those land uses and activities which are
permitted in older, central areas of the City that have been developed
with a variety of residential land uses. Generally these areas have
smaller lots, and one-family and two-family homes are the predominate
and most desirable land uses.
E.
R-4 Multifamily Residential District. The intent of the R-4 Residential
District is to set forth those land uses and activities which are
permitted in areas where a moderate to high concentration of residential
dwellings, including multiple-family housing development, is the desired
predominant land use.
Restrictions and controls for land uses or activities permitted
in residential districts, or land uses or activities having special
conditions attached to them, or requiring a special use permit, are
set forth in Schedule II. Regulations for lot size, yards and similar
bulk requirements are set forth in Schedule III. Both said schedules
are hereby adopted and made part of this chapter.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: The schedules are included as attachments to this chapter.
A land use or activity not set forth in Schedule II is not permitted
in residential districts in the City of Fond du Lac, except that uses
and activities which are similar to those which are permitted in a
district may be permitted by special use permit.
[Amended 5-14-2014 by Ord. No. 3546]
Land uses or activities listed in Schedule II as being "permitted
with special conditions" shall not be considered permitted until applicable
conditions, as set forth in this chapter, have been complied with
or a variance has been granted.

Acceptable materials of a building in a residential district include
siding made of wood, wood composite, vinyl, or fiber cement; brick,
brick veneer, stone, stone veneer, split face or decorative block,

and consistent size. Other building materials may be considered where
appropriate. The use of metal panels, plywood, oriented strand board
(OSB) or similar materials as primary wall treatments is prohibited.
Metal roofs, decorative metal trim and accents, and metal architectural
elements may be considered on a case-by-case basis. A metal clad building
or a pre-engineered metal building system is not permitted, except
where allowed for a land use approved by a special use permit. These
standards apply to the first-time construction of a building(s), building
additions, exterior remodeling and renovation.
B.
A membrane structure, including plastic, fabric or similar flexible
materials, is not permitted as a permanent structure except where
allowed for a land use approved by a special use permit. The temporary
and/or permanent use of a steel shipping container as a structure

A.
When a lot in an R-3 or R-4 District abuts property in an R-1 District,
a landscape buffer strip at least 10 feet wide shall be established
along the length of the adjacent R-1 lot line where the adjacent R-1
land is developed or planned for single-family use. A buffer strip
is not required when the adjacent R-1 District property is occupied
by existing public, institutional or other nonresidential uses.
B.
No multifamily structure closer than 200 feet to a R-1 District shall
be more than two stories or 35 feet in height where the adjacent R-1
land is developed or planned for single-family use. The height limitation
is not applicable when the adjacent R-1 District property is occupied
by existing public, institutional or other nonresidential uses.
C.
Density reductions for multifamily dwellings closer than 200 feet
to an R-1 District shall not apply when the R-1 property is occupied
by existing public, institutional or other nonresidential uses.
D.
The front facade of a building shall be oriented to face a public
street, except in the case of a through lot. Where the site development
of multifamily residences or condominium homes orients the rear or
side building facade to abut a public street, such facades shall be
enhanced with architectural elements and/or landscaping.
E.
F.
Outdoor trash/recycling receptacles shall be confined within an enclosed
area located not less than five feet from any side or rear property

groupings of plants at the entryways to the property, open parking
screening, and front yard setback areas along a public right-of-way
and along interior lot lines to provide a transition to adjoining
properties.
I.
Lighting. Site lighting shall utilize fixtures that reflect the architecture
and style of the building(s). Freestanding lights shall not exceed
12 feet in height. Lighting shall be confined to the site and shall
not produce glare or wash onto adjacent properties or public rights-of-way.

of boats, trailers, fishing shanties, snowmobiles, recreational vehicles,
and other similar vehicles shall be prohibited.
K.
Site design and architectural techniques. There is no particular
architectural style required for condominium dwellings, but the focus
should be on the development of a high-quality residential environment.

area, particularly adjacent traditional single-family subdivisions.
Site design requirements shall include the following:
(1)
The front facade of a building shall be oriented to face a public

the front facade does not face a public street, the front yard area
shall be provided with landscaping and other suitable materials to
buffer the use from the public right-of-way.
