§ 103-19. Purpose and intent.

The general purpose and intent of this residential district is to provide for areas within the Town of Oneonta where the living environment associated with single-family and two-family residential development and their related facilities can be preserved and/or where the development of such an environment is encouraged. In promoting the general purpose of this chapter, the specific intent of this Article is:

A. 

To encourage the construction of and the continuous use of the land for single-family and two-family residential dwellings; to encourage the development of recreational, religious and educational facilities required for and compatible with a balanced single- and two-family residential neighborhood; and to permit home occupations.

B. 

To discourage all business, commercial and industrial development of the land and multiple-family units and developments such as mobile home parks, and to prohibit any other use which would substantially interfere with or be deleterious to the development and continuation of single- and two-family dwellings in this residential district.

C. 

To discourage all land uses which would generate traffic on residential streets other than normal traffic to the residences on those streets.
