Section 175-28       STATEMENT OF INTENT.


The R-3 Residential District is composed of medium-to-high density concentrations of residential uses. The standards for this district are designed to stabilize and protect the essential character of the area so designated and to promote and encourage, insofar as compatible with the intensity of land use, a suitable environment for families desiring the amenities of apartment living and the convenience of being closest to shopping, employment centers and other community facilities. Development is, therefore, limited to medium- to high-density concentration, and permitted uses are limited to single-family, two-family and multifamily dwellings, plus selected additional uses, such as schools, parks, churches and certain public facilities.  Home occupations, as defined by this chapter, are permitted.  Mobile homes are prohibited.
