[R.O. 2012 §405.085; Ord. No. 4131 § 1, 8-14-2017[1]]
A.
The "R-1" District is intended principally for lower density, higher
quality residential dwellings. Areas so designated are served by local
streets feeding a single collector road, but are separated from the
arterial network and buffered from business and industrial districts
by more dense residential development districts. Permitted uses are
limited to single-family dwellings at gross densities of approximately
three and six-tenths (3.6) units per acre and related recreation,
religious and educational facilities. Other conditional uses should
demonstrate a direct support relationship to the residential functions
of the district.
The "R-1A" District is intended principally for lower density,
higher quality residential dwellings and is therefore the most restrictive
residential district. Areas so designated are served by local streets
feeding a single collector road, but are separated from the arterial
network and buffered from business and industrial districts by denser
residential development districts. Permitted uses are limited to single-family
dwellings at gross densities of approximately two (2) units per acre.
B.
Activities which are incompatible with or detrimental to high quality
residential use should be prohibited.
