R-1
Single-Family Residence District
The R-1, Single-Family Residence district, is established to encourage the orderly transition of land from agricultural to low density residential use, to provide areas well suited as to location and topography, to meet the market demands for large lots, and to prohibit any uses which are incompatible. The principal use of land is for single-family dwellings on large lots where appropriate use of the minimal community services available in the Village of Mettawa may be had.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Housing-Single unit
