R2
Single Family District Detached Housing
The intent of this district is to promote and protect medium density residential neighborhoods consisting of single family housing. Housing in this district may be either detached or attached. The R2 district is intended to be flexible enough to allow for increasingly sustainable neighborhood designs to be incorporated into large portions of the city. The district allows for alley accessible single family homes with smaller lot sizes and alley accessible attached single family homes to be incorporated into neighborhoods in large portions of the city, while still providing a district which accommodates traditional suburban homes. Residences with 6,000 sq ft lots must have alley loaded driveways.
