The R-2, two-family residential district, is established as a district in which the principal use of land is for two-family dwellings. For the R-2 residential district, in promoting the general purpose of this chapter, the specific intent of this section is: to encourage the construction of, and the continued use of the land for two-family dwellings; to prohibit business, commercial or industrial use of the land, and to prohibit any other use which would substantially interfere with development or continuation of single- and two-family dwellings in the district; to encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses under the provisions of this chapter; to discourage any land use which would generate traffic on minor or local streets other than normal traffic generated by the residences on those streets.
