The R-1 district is composed of certain areas having a single-family residential character and undeveloped land where it is desirable and likely that similar development will occur.

Prohibit business, commercial or industrial use of the land, and prohibit any other use which would substantially interfere with development or maintenance of single-family dwellings in the district;

C.

Encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses under the provisions of this chapter [appendix];

D.

Discourage any land use which would generate traffic on minor or local roads, other than normal traffic to serve residences on those roads;

E.

Discourage any use which because of its size or character would create requirements and costs for public services such as fire and police protection, water supply and sanitary sewerage substantially in excess of such requirements and costs if the district were developed solely for residential purposes.

The following uses are permitted in the R-1 district:
