§ 152.026 PURPOSES.

   Residential zoning districts are primarily intended to create, maintain and promote a variety of housing opportunities for individual households and to maintain and promote the desired physical character of existing and developing neighborhoods. While the districts primarily accommodate residential uses, some nonresidential uses are also allowed. The various R Districts are primarily differentiated on the basis of allowed building types, density and lot and building regulations.
(Prior Code, § 10-2-2) (Ord. 2018-16, passed 12-4-2018)

§ 152.027 USES.

   Uses are allowed in R Districts in accordance with the use regulations of § 152.085 of this chapter.
(Prior Code, § 10-2-3) (Ord. 2018-16, passed 12-4-2018)
