It defines residential zones R1 and R2 with permitted housing and limited dwelling-based businesses, sets parking standards for residential, commercial, and industrial areas, and prohibits development in flood-prone lands within 100 feet of streams. It also details lot sizes and living area requirements for single and multi family dwellings, farm and open space zones, and commercial area site plan approval.
