demolish; provided, however, that a denial of permission to de-

from the date of application for a permit to demolish, unless at
the expiration of four (4) months, adjustments have been made
which allow for such a return. During this time the commission

§ 4-103 APPENDIX A—ZONING § 4-104
Section 4-103 General statement of intent for residential dis-
tricts
The residential districts and regulations provided for by
this ordinance are intended to offer a variety of housing types
and living environments meeting the needs and desires of
present and future residents of the City. The residential dis-
trict regulations are also intended to promote and protect to
the greatest degree possible the qualities of tranquility, pri-
vacy, stability, attractiveness, and spaciousness which are
traditionally associated with the most desirable residential en-
vironments. Only those uses deemed fully compatible with
and supportive of these purposes are allowed by right in the
residential districts. Certain other uses which are deemed
generally compatible with the residential goals and which
depend upon a residential atmosphere for their optimum
performance may be allowed as conditional uses upon a show-
ing that proper conditions are met to reduce any potentially
adverse impacts of such uses upon the district or neighborhood
concerned. It is further the express intent of this ordinance
that no residential district should be considered inherently
inferior or superior to another, but that each residential dis-
trict should be judged equally in light of its particular pur-
pose and the purposes of this ordinance.
Section 4-104 R-1—Residential district regulations
4-104.1 General Statement of Intent
The R-1 Residential District is intended to provide for
homogeneous single-family residential neighborhoods
particularly conducive to family life and associated
leisure activities. It is contemplated that this designa-
tion will be applied to both existing residential neigh-
borhoods which have been developed in substantial con-
formance with the regulations for this district and un-
developed areas in the City which are deemed suitable
for such development. It is further intended that the
R-1 classification should generally be applied only to
contiguous and discrete residential neighborhoods
which are unpenetrated by arterial streets. When super -
Supp. No. 3
2491
§ 4-104
DUBUQUE CODE § 4-104
imposed with the PUD District designation, a higher
range and intensity of uses may be permitted in the
R-1 District than is otherwise permitted under this
Section. The PUD District provisions and regulations
may be superimposed upon the R-1 District in accord-
ance with Section 4-110 of this Article, entitled "PUD
District Regulations."
4-104.2 Principal Permitted Uses
In the R-1 Residential District no building, structure
or land shall be used and no building or structure shall
be built or altered to be used in whole or in part, un-
less otherwise specifically provided by this ordinance,
except for the following purposes :
1) Single-family dwelling
2) Public Schools
3) Private and parochial schools for grades kinder-
garten through the 12th grade, but only when ap-
proved by and meeting all applicable standards,
regulations and rules of the Iowa State Board of
Public Instruction.
4) Farms, gardens, nurseries, and greenhouses.
5) Public or private parks, golf courses, or similar
natural recreation areas.
6) Churches, convents, and monasteries.
7) Nursery schools or day-care centers operated in a
single-family dwelling by the owner or permanent
occupant thereof and caring for or instructing no
more than five (5) children on the premises at any
time.
8) Railroads and public or quasi -public utility sub-
stations.

§ 4-108 APPENDIX A—ZONING § 4-108
Section 4-108 R-5—Residential district regulations
4-108.1 General Statement of Intent
The R-5 Residential District is intended to be applied
to appropriate multi -family dwellings developed in sub-
stantial conformance with the regulations of this Sec-
tion and to provide for new moderately -high density
residential housing in undeveloped areas. In newly
developing or undeveloped areas, it is contemplated
that the R-5 zone will be applied only to larger tracts
which are readily serviceable by collector or arterial
streets of appropriate capacity. It is further intended
that R-5 districts should generally be placed adjacent
to higher intensity office -residential or commercial
zones where the R-5 District can serve as a "buffer" or
transitional zone between such high intensity uses and
lower intensity residential districts.
When superimposed by the PUD District designation, a
slightly different range and intensity of uses may be
permitted in the R-5 Residential District than is other-
wise permitted under this Section. The PUD District
provisions and regulations may be superimposed upon
the R-5 District in accordance with Section 4-110 of
this Article, entitled "PUD District Regulations".
4-108.2 Principal Permitted Uses
1) Duplexes or townhouses.
2) Multiple -family dwellings.
4-108.3 Accessory Uses
Accessory uses and buildings are permitted in the R-5
Residential District in accordance with the provisions
and regulations of Article V of this ordinance, entitled,
"Supplementary District Regulations".
4-108.4 Conditional Uses
The following Conditional Uses are permitted in the
R-5 Residential District, but only in accordance with
Supp. No. 13
2509.
§ 4-108 DUBUQUE CODE § 4-108
the provisions of Article VI of this ordinance governing
the issuance of Conditional Use Permits:
All uses listed as Conditional Uses in the R-1 Resi-
dential District Regulations under the same standards,
restrictions, and conditions provided for therein unless fur-
ther identified below as a separate conditional use:
1) Group homes on lots no less than 400 square feet per

APPENDIX A—ZONING § 4-109
Section 4-109 OR -1 Office -Residential district regulations
4-109.1 General Statement of Intent
The OR -1 Residential District is primarily a high-
density residential dwelling district permitting mixed
professional office use. The regulations for this district
are therefore designed to promote the same basic resi-
dential living qualities sought in other residential dis-
tricts [see Section 4-103 of this Article], consistent
with the mixed use character of the district. In addition
to residential and office use, certain low -intensity com-
mercial uses for the primary convenience and service
of district residents may be allowed in the OR -1 PUD
zone as Conditional Uses by the Board of Adjustment
upon a showing that proper standards and conditions
are present to avoid adverse impact upon the residential
living environment.
It is contemplated that this district will be mapped
only in areas where the service infrastructure is ade-
quate to accommodate the uses permitted by these regu-
lations. It is further contemplated that this district
will generally be employed as a buffer or transitional
zone between lower density residential districts and
commercial or institutional districts.
When superimposed with the PUD District designation
a slightly different range and intensity of uses may be
permitted in the OR -1 District than is otherwise per-
mitted under this Section. The PUD District provisions
and regulations may be superimposed upon the OR -1
District in accordance with Section 4-110 of this Arti-
cle, entitled "PUD District Regulations".
4-109.2 Principal Permitted Uses
In the OR -1 Office -Residential District no building,

limitations, and all other standards or conditions
contained in the provisions authorizing such use.
6-106.4.2 Adequate utility, drainage and other neces-
sary facilities or improvements have been or will
be provided.
6-106.4.3 Adequate access roads or entrance and exit
drives will be provided and will be designed so as
to prevent traffic hazards and to minimize traffic
conflicts and congestion in public streets and
alleys.
6-106.4.4 All necessary permits and licenses required
for the operation of the Conditional Use have been
obtained, or it clearly appears that such permits
Supp. No. 1
2618.1
§ 6-106 APPENDIX A -ZONING § 6-106
are obtainable for the proposed Conditional Use on
the subject property.
6-106.4.5 All exterior lighting fixtures are shaded
wherever necessary to avoid casting direct light
upon any property located in a residential district.
6-106.4.6 The location and size of the Conditional Use,
the nature and intensity of the activities to be in-
volved or conducted in connection with it, the
size of the site in relation thereto, and the location
of the site with respect to streets giving access to
the Conditional Use, shall be such that it will be in
harmony with the appropriate and orderly develop-
ment of the district and neighborhood in which it
is located.
6-106.4.7 The location, nature and height of buildings,
structures, walls, and fences on the site and the
nature and extent of landscaping and screening on
the site shall be such that the use will not un-
reasonably hinder or discourage the appropriate
development, use and enjoyment of adjacent land,
buildings and structures.
6-106.4.8 The proposed Conditional Use will not cause
substantial injury to the value of other property
in the neighborhood in which it is located and
will contribute to and promote the convenience and

6-106.4.9 Additional Standards for Granting a Condi-
tional Use Permit for a Change in Non -Conform-
ing Uses
Where an applicant seeks a Conditional Use Permit
for the purpose of changing from one non -con-
forming use to another non -conforming use, as
provided in Section 2-106.3 of this ordinance, no
Conditional Use Permit for such change shall be
granted unless and until the Board further de-
termines, in addition to the findings required by
2619
§ 6-106 DUBUQUE CODE § 6406
subsections 6-106.4.1 through 6-106.4.8 of this
Section, that the proposed non -conforming use is
more appropriate to the purpose and character of
the zone in which it is located than the existing
non -conforming use. The granting of any Condi-
tional Use Permit under this subsection shall not
be deemed to otherwise authorize in the district
involved any use not specifically listed as a Per-
mitted or Conditional Use for the district and the
new non -conforming use allowed by the permit
shall be subject to all provisions of Article II of
this ordinance to the same degree and extent as the
prior non -conforming use.
The Board may solicit the opinion or advice of
the Planning and Zoning Commission, its staff,
or any other public agency or employee(s) whose
advice the Board considers necessary to properly
make the determinations required by this Section.
However, such advice may not be relied upon in
whole or in part as a basis for the ultimate de-
cision to grant, conditionally grant, or deny the
Conditional Use Permit unless such advice is pre-
sented to the Board in writing, is read or otherwise
publicly presented at the public hearing, and is
specifically identified as a determining considera-
tion in the Board's final written decision.
6-106.5 Conditions and Restrictions on the Conditional Use
Permit
In granting a Conditional Use Permit, the Board may
impose any conditions or restrictions it reasonably con-
siders necessary to insure full compliance with the
standards of Section 6-106.4 of this Article, to reduce
or eliminate any detrimental effect of the proposed
Conditional Use upon the neighborhood or the district,
or to carry out the general purposes and intent of this
ordinance. Violation of such conditions and restrictions,
when made a part of the terms under which a Condi-
tional Use Permit is granted, shall be deemed a viola-
tion of this ordinance.
