This district is intended to provide for low-density residential neighborhoods, characterized by single-family dwellings on relatively large lots with supporting community facilities and municipal services, including municipal water and sanitary sewer service. Its regulations are intended to minimize traffic congestion and to assure that density is consistent with the carrying capacity of infrastructure. The R-1 District should normally not be used for developments on individual or community water or wastewater systems. The R-1 Single-Family Residential District (Low-Density) is appropriately used in areas designated by the Papillion Comprehensive Plan as low-density residential and medium-density residential.

NOTES:
* Corner lots bordered by two arterial streets shall maintain full front yard setbacks on both arterials.
Within a common development, interior side yard setbacks may be equal to zero for single-family attached residential uses, provided that:
A. 
The normal side yard setback requirement must be maintained adjacent to any lot with an existing structure not within the common development or not otherwise designated for zero-lot-line use.
B. 
An easement for maintenance of the zero-lot-line facade is prepared by the developer and filed with the Sarpy County Register of Deeds, the City Clerk, and the Building Official at the time of application for a building permit.
