§ 13-1-46. Neighborhood Residential (NR) District.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    Description and Purpose.

    (1)

    Purpose. This district is intended to permit development which has a moderate density, suburban community character. Density and intensity standards for this district are designed to ensure that the Neighborhood Residential (NR) District shall serve as a designation which preserves and protects the suburban residential community character of its area. A variety of residential development options are available in this district, with a Maximum Gross Density (MGD) of 5 dwelling units per gross acre.

    (2)

    Rationale. This district is used to provide for the permanent protection of a moderate density residential area for those who want to live in an suburban residential environment and who retain enough land with their residence, or in their development, to ensure that the suburban community character is maintained as long as the Neighborhood Residential (NR) District designation is retained, regardless of how much development occurs within that area.
