What does R-1 zoning allow in Southfield?
R-1 is part of Southfield's single family residence districts. By right, the district allows one-family dwellings, farms and conforming farm buildings, customary accessory buildings and uses, one private garage for each residential lot, and state-licensed family child care homes. Other residentially related uses, such as schools, public buildings, parks, places of worship, group child care homes, and small event venues, require the special approval process in Section 5.62-A.
