Lysander City Zoning Code

ARTICLE VIII

R-10 District

§ 320-19 Structures and uses.

The R-10 District is intended to encourage medium-to-high density residential development in conjunction with water and sewer services, which are required in the R-10 District. It permits a range of residential densities to be developed in a concentrated manner so the balance of a site may allow for open space protection, recreational uses or attractive landscaping. Higher levels of development are intended to provide means of avoiding disruption of sensitive environmental features while offering the additional economic and housing opportunities of the community.
