Sections:


18.24.010 - Permitted uses.

Permitted uses of property in the R-2 district shall be any use permitted in the R-1 district, philanthropic uses, and lodgehall use.

(Ord. 77 § 2.201, 1961.)

18.24.020 - Prohibited uses.

Prohibited uses in the R-2 district shall be all uses not permitted in Section 18.24.010.

(Ord. 77 § 2.202, 1961.)

18.24.030 - Buildings—Maximum height restriction.

No building in the R-2 district shall exceed thirty-five feet in height.

(Ord. 77 § 2.203, 1961.)

18.24.040 - Buildings—Area regulations.

Area regulations for buildings in the R-2 district shall be as follows:

A.

Yard.

1.

The front building lines of any front yard shall conform to the average building lines in a developed block, but in no case shall the front yard be less than twenty feet. When there is undeveloped land for a distance of one hundred fifty feet on both sides of the proposed building, the minimum building setback line shall be twenty-five feet from the established street right-of-way lines. On through lots, this minimum depth shall be provided on both streets.

2.

There shall be two side yards, one on each side of the building, having a minimum width of five feet each. However, this regulation shall not be so interpreted as to reduce to less than twenty-four feet the buildable width of a corner lot existing before September 15, 1961, the effective date of the ordinance codified in this title. To maintain the minimum buildable width of a corner lot, the necessary reduction shall be on the side yard not abutting the street.

3.

There shall be a rear yard having a depth of not less than twenty percent of the depth of the lot; provided, however, that the depth of the required rear yard shall not be less than twenty feet and need not exceed fifty feet.

B.

Lot Size.

1.

There shall be a lot width of a minimum of fifty feet at the building line.

2.

Every lot shall contain an area of not less than six thousand square feet per family unit.

(Ord. 77 § 2.204, 1961.)

18.24.050 - Off-street parking.

Off-street parking regulations in the R-2 district are provided for in Chapter 18.52.
