R2

The R-2 (medium-density residential) district is composed of medium to high-density residential areas, ordinarily located near commercial areas or employment centers, and open areas where similar development is planned or likely to occur. The regulations for this R-2 district are designed to stabilize and protect the basic characteristics of the R-2 district, to promote and encourage, compatibility with the intensity of land use, a suitable environment for the enjoyment of family life and to permit limited commercial uses of a compatible character which are unlikely to develop general concentration of traffic, crowds of customers, and general outdoor advertising. The R-2 district is intended to protect against encroachment of general commercial or industrial uses. A wide variety of residential uses for both permanent and transient occupancy are permitted. Development is focused on medium to high concentrations of dwellings and permitted uses are basically dwellings and additional uses such as schools, parks, clubs, churches and certain public facilities that serve the R-2 district.
