The residence districts are provided to support and complement
the Village Comprehensive Plan. Residence district requirements are
further established to govern location, intensity and method of development
of residential areas in the Village and to provide for and encourage
construction of a full range of residential developments on land topographically
and locationally suited for residential purposes. The regulations
for each district are designed to provide protection to existing developments
while allowing new construction in accordance with current design
standards and density objectives.
The E-1 Single-Family Residence District is established to preserve
and maintain existing large-acreage rural estate residential areas
of the Village and permit the continued development of residential
uses primarily in areas where public utilities are not readily available.
This district functions as a transition from rural areas with agricultural
designations to areas more residential in character.
The E-2 Single-Family Rural Residence District is established
to preserve and maintain large-lot rural estate residential areas
to enhance and perpetuate the "countryside" character of the community
and to preserve environmental features located in many of the areas
within such district.
The R-1 Single-Family Residence District is established to provide
an environment of predominantly large-lot single-family dwellings
in more developed settings than the E-1 or E-2 Zoning District and
it is intended to maximize separation of structures and minimize lot
coverage.
The R-2 Single-Family Residence District is established to provide
for an environment of predominantly large-lot single-family dwellings
where provisions for compatible community facilities and services
are available or can be made available in the near future or where
the location or physical characteristics of the property are uniquely
suited to residential lots of one acre.
The R-2A Single-Family Residence District is established to
provide for an environment of predominantly large-lot single-family
dwellings where the location or physical characteristics of the property
are uniquely suited to residential lots of 30,000 square feet.
The R-3 Single-Family Residence District is established to provide
for an environment of predominantly single-family dwellings where
provisions for compatible community facilities and services are available
or can be made available in the near future.
The R-3A Single-Family Residence District is established to
provide for a development of single-family dwellings with smaller
lots characterized by significant amounts of open space and the preservation
of environmentally sensitive areas through appropriate subdivision
design.

The R-3B Single-Family Residence District is established for
the subdivision commonly referred to as "Woodbine West Estates Subdivision"
to provide for a development of single-family dwellings on lots located
within the subdivision with lot sizes ranging from the maximum of
18,677 square feet to the minimum of 9,607 square feet with a median
average lot size of 11,308 square feet. The R-3B Zoning District is
an overlay district in an E-1 Single-Family Estate Residence District
and is being established to create a zoning district which more accurately
reflects the characteristics and uses of the properties in the subdivision.
[Amended 9-9-2008 by Ord. No. 08-048]
The R-6A Attached Single-Family Residential District is established
to provide for a diversity of housing. While allowing for attached
dwellings, developments within this district should also retain a
single-family characteristic whenever possible. The maximum allowable
density within the R-6A District shall not exceed a net density of
six units per acre.
