A. 
Parts of Main Street to the northeast of the downtown area, to the east and west of Main Street, Orchard Hills and nearby areas, and the eastern parts of Stone Hill Road and Valley Road are similar to the village area in terms of their small lots, narrow side and front yards, and instances of older architecture. However, these areas do not have the mix of residential and nonresidential land uses that characterize the village. Therefore, the Village Residential District is created to recognize that such areas have different physical conditions from surrounding areas, but a broad mix of land uses is not appropriate.
B. 
The Village Residential District differs from the Village Mixed-Use District primarily because the VR District allows a narrower range of land uses, and forms a transition between the higher-density Village District area with surrounding lower-density residential areas.
