LMR Low-Medium Residential District.

[Added 6-17-1993[1]]The intent in creating this district is to provide developmental direction for a segment of land that is adjacent to an R-1, R-2 or R-3 Single-Family Residential District or otherwise sensitive area. This district, although similar to MHR, allows for a better transitional zone by further limiting density and structure dimensions as well as increasing buffers. If reasonably possible, naturally occurring aesthetic buffers should be maintained, together with the addition of aesthetic buffers such as plantings and berms. The following shall apply in the LMR District:A. Permitted uses shall include a combination of two or more of the following:(1) Single-family detached and semidetached dwellings.(2) Two-family dwellings.(3) [2]Townhouses.[2]Editor's Note: Former Subsection A(3), multiple-family dwellings, was repealed 1-7-2010 by L.L.
