The R-1 zoning classification is designed to provide areas for single-family residential development where lot sizes and densities are designed to accommodate large areas of open space for recreational activities compatible with a residential environment. The R-1 single-family residential district is intended to achieve the following purposes:

A.

To reserve appropriately located areas for family living in a variety of types of dwellings at a reasonable range of population densities consistent with sound standards of public health and safety;

B.

To ensure adequate light, air, privacy and open space for each dwelling unit;

C.

To provide space for community facilities needed to complement urban residential areas and for institutions which require a residential environment;

D.

To minimize traffic congestion and to avoid the overloading of utilities by preventing the construction of buildings of excessive size in relation to the land around them;

E.

To protect residential properties from the hazards, noise and congestion created by commercial and industrial traffic;

F.

To provide necessary space for off-street parking of automobiles;

G.

To protect residential properties from noise, illumination, unsightliness, odors, dust, dirt, smoke, vibration, heat, glare and other objectionable influences;

H.

To protect residential properties from fire, explosion, noxious fumes and other hazards.

This zoning classification is divided into the classes of R-1-10, R-1-20 and R-1-40, which are intended to apply to all lands designated in the General Plan as "medium residential," "low-density residential," and "estate residential," respectively.
