RH-1(D) (RESIDENTIAL- HOUSE, ONE FAMILY- DETACHED)

In RH-1 (D) districts, the neighborhoods typically feature single-family homes with side yards.

The number of residential units in the RH-1(D) district is calculated based on the size of the lot, but it cannot exceed 3 dwelling units per lot.

Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.

Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.

Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.

Structures in these districts are relatively large, often developed in sizable tracts with similar building styles and narrow streets that follow the contours of the hills. In some cases, private agreements have guided development and helped maintain the character of the street areas.
