A.
The purposes of the Mixed Residential-1 Districts
are to provide for moderate-density development in certain areas in
order to accommodate a wide variety of dwelling types, to ensure a
balanced community, to provide for open space and recreational facilities,
and to protect the character of existing neighborhoods. These areas
have been established specifically to recognize the existence of the
Horsham Towne and Country Springs residential developments.
B.
Within the Mixed Residential-1 Districts, a building
may be erected, altered or used, and a lot or premises may be used
only when in conformance with the conditions of an approved master

yard.

Twin and duplex dwelling.
D.
Accessory structure on the same lot and customarily
incidental to the above permitted uses.

park and recreation purposes.
