The incorporated territory of the Town of Hebron is hereby classified and divided into nine districts, designated as follows:

A.

Agricultural (AG). To conserve and enhance the low density and agricultural use of substantial portions of the buffer zone of the Town of Hebron that should retain such character. By conserving such character, the town and other public agencies will realize economies in public expenditures by minimizing scattered demand for urban types and levels of services, utilities, and facilities in otherwise predominantly rural areas, and will promote the preservation of agricultural lands as a vital economic resource for present and future agricultural productivity. Subdivisions are not permitted in this district.

B.

Residential (R1, R2, R3). These three districts are established for residential use in conformity with the types of neighborhoods which have occurred and are likely to develop in the areas so designated on the zone map. The districts differ primarily with respect to requirements of lot size, building ground floor area, and number of families which may be housed in one building. The specific requirements for each residential district are shown in Figure 1. Certain non-residential contingent uses are automatically permitted in these districts (see Figure 7), and special exceptions may be permitted with the approval of the board (see Figure 9).

1.

R1. This is primarily a single-family dwelling district. It includes most of the territory of the town which appears most likely to be residential in character. Requirements of minimum lot size and ground floor area are greater than the requirement for the R2 district.

2.

R2. While this district would be primarily used for single family dwellings, two family and multi-family buildings will be permitted on a density of use basis, with the minimum lot size being increased for buildings containing more than one family. The R2 requirements as to minimum lot size and ground floor area are less than those specified for the R1 district.

3.

R3. Medium to high density multi-family district, the intent of which is to establish and preserve relatively higher density residential districts in the appropriate areas of the town. Such districts are to consist primarily of multi-family and two family dwellings with convenient access to transportation facilities, shopping areas, churches, schools, and similar amenities, and should be serviced by municipal utilities, including water and sanitary sewer systems.

C.

Commercial (C1, C2, C3). These districts are established to meet the specific requirements for the classes of business uses needed to provide adequate service throughout the town as related to present and future developments. Single and multi-family dwellings are permitted uses in C1 and C2 districts, but not in C3 districts. All residential uses in C1 and C2 districts are subject to the requirements of Figure 1. The specific requirements for business uses in all commercial districts are provided in Figures 2, 3, and 4. Contingent uses and special exception uses permitted are provided in Figures 7 and 9.

1.

C1. This district is designed and located in a location to accommodate the primary shopping needs of the area. Although limited in area occupied, these districts are important to the economic welfare of the community in placing "convenience" and "impulse" goods establishments close to the consumer. The local business uses defined in section 2-2-5-2 are permitted in all commercial districts.

2.

C2. This is a general business district providing for all types of business and service uses, including warehouse and storage facilities.

3.

C3. This district is provided to meet the need for retail shopping facilities in planned shopping centers where no clear pattern of business now exists. Such business centers shall be established on a single, well-planned site of at least six acres.

D.

Industrial (I1). These districts are established to meet the present and future need for light industrial development, and incorporate most of the existing industrial developments and provide for the expansion thereof. Generally, permitted uses will include the storage of materials, when confined within a building, except for the storage, loading, and unloading of materials in the rear yard. The performance characteristics are compatible with uses permitted in neighboring districts.

E.

Mobile home parks (MHP). To provide and maintain a suitable residential area for mobile homes within a mobile home park and mobile home subdivision, both of which shall require the approval of the board of zoning appeals through the issuance of a special exception.
