[Ord. 294, 11/26/2007, § 27-301]
All areas of Dublin Borough are hereby divided into districts
of different types, each type being of such number, shape, kind and
area, and of such common unity of purpose and adaptability of use
that is deemed most suitable to carry out the objectives of this chapter
and the Dublin Borough Comprehensive Plan.
[Ord. 294, 11/26/2007, § 27-302; as amended by Ord. 312, 4/24/2017]
1. For the purpose of this chapter, Dublin Borough is hereby divided
into districts which shall be designated as follows:
A. R-1 Mixed Use Residential District. It is the purpose of this district
to establish an area which will accommodate all types of residential
structures, single-family and multi-family, to ensure a balanced community
and which, through clustered development, preserves areas of open
space for recreational use by the residents.
B. R-2 Neighborhood Conservation Residential District. It is the purpose
of this district to retain the existing character of established residential
areas, in addition to providing for in-fill development.
C. TC-1 Town Center District. It is the purpose of this district to
promote a mix of residential and nonresidential uses, conversion of
residences to low-impact nonresidential uses, adaptive reuse of existing
structures and sites, appropriate infill development, and a visual
style compatible with the character of the Borough.
D. TC-2 Town Center 2 District. It is the purpose of this district to
provide for a mix of uses within one building and/or stand-alone building
consisting of retail, office, and residential uses on vacant/underutilized
parcels along the Main Street corridor. Development of nonresidential
uses along the first floor and residential above will provide for
smaller dwellings and nonresidential uses which serve the Borough
and adjoining communities. The district encourages pedestrian-oriented
design and promotes health and well-being by promoting walking and
social interaction.
E. IP Institutional Public District. It is the purpose of this district
to accommodate public facilities, while minimizing any negative impacts
on surrounding residential land.
F. Ind Light Industrial District. It is the purpose of this district
to provide for industrial and commercial facilities with appropriate
standards so that they are compatible with the nature of the Borough.
G. PVD Planned Village Development District. It is the purpose of this
district to provide for a walkable residential village environment
with a variety of commercial and residential uses.
