Section 175-19          STATEMENT OF INTENT.


The R-2 District is composed of medium-density concentrations of residential uses and open areas where similar development appears likely to occur.  The standards for this district are designed to stabilize and protect the essential character of the area so designated and to protect and encourage, insofar as compatible with the intensity of land use, a suitable environment for family life.  Development is, therefore, limited to low- to medium-density concentrations, and permitted uses are limited to single-family- and two-family-type dwellings plus selected additional uses, such as schools, parks, churches and certain public facilities that serve the residents of the district.  Home occupations, as defined by this chapter, are permitted. Mobile homes are prohibited.
