This R-2, R-2A district is composed of certain medium and high concentration residential
uses, plus certain areas where similar development appears likely to occur. The regulations
for this district are designed to stabilize and protect the essential characteristics
of the R-2, R-2A district, to promote and encourage, insofar as is compatible with
the intensity of land use, a suitable environment for family life composed of an adult
population with some children. To these ends, retail activity is sharply limited and
this R-2, R-2A district is protected against encroachment of general commercial or
industrial uses. This R-2, R-2A residential district is not completely residential
as it includes public and semipublic institutional and other related uses.
