§ 154.065 R-2 MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT.
   (A)   Intent. The R-2 Medium Density Residential District is established as a district in which the principal use of land is for single-family dwellings. It is the intention of these regulations to discourage any use which would be detrimental to the medium density, single-family residential nature of the areas included within the district as well as to discourage any uses not harmonious with the existing unique architectural styling and overall character of the resort area.

      (1)   Single-family dwelling, excluding manufactured homes;
      (2)   Municipal uses, functions, and facilities; and
      (3)   Customary accessory buildings, structures, and uses, provided the buildings and structures are compatible with the architectural style if the principal structure and conform with the color and materials standards required by this chapter. Accessory buildings and structures shall be located in a side or rear yard and shall conform with the setback requirements. Dish antennas are permitted as an accessory use, subject to the provisions in § 154.107. Consistent with the definition of an accessory building set forth in this chapter, use of an accessory building as part of a dwelling shall be allowed, but no rental or lease of accessory buildings shall be allowed unless such accessory building is rented or leased as a whole with the main structure of the property.
   (C)   Special use permits. Within the R-2 Medium Density Residential District, the following uses are permitted subject to the issuance of a special use permit from the Board of Adjustment in accordance with Chapter 31:
