Non-residential uses in these districts may be subject to restrictions and requirements necessary to preserve and protect the single family residential character of these districts. Variation among the RSF-1, RSF-2, and RSF-3 districts is in requirements for lot area, width, and certain yards. 4.5.2 PERMITTED PRINCIPAL USES AND STRUCTURES 1. Single family dwellings. 2.
