A. Purpose. This Section contains
the regulation for the "R-1" Residential District (hereinafter "R-1"
District). The purpose of the "R-1" District is to allow for large-Lot
residential settings (i.e., open space, wooded Lots, scenic views,
and privacy), as large-Lot residential development patterns minimize
the impact of development on "environmentally sensitive" land in Fenton.
The "R-1" District's environmentally sensitive areas are characterized
by steep slopes (>7%), critical drainage courses or watersheds, heavy
woods, and shallow soils. These regulations are supplemented and qualified
by additional regulations appearing elsewhere in this Code.

the regulations for the "R-4" Residential District (hereinafter "R-4"
District). The purpose of the "R-4" District is to accommodate Riverside
subdivision, the City's first subdivision. Originally built for Chrysler
employees, Riverside was developed with Single-Family Dwellings on

along Wolfner Drive, Two-Family Dwellings were developed to create
a buffer between the Non-Residential Uses north of Wolfner Drive and
the Single-Family Dwellings located in Riverside. Lots and Residential
Uses of this size form a necessary component in the City's planning
strategy as a separation of dissimilar uses. These regulations are
supplemented and qualified by additional regulations appearing elsewhere
in this Code.
