City of Newport Zoning Ordinance
§ 17.20.010

Legislative intent

The R-10 residential district is an area of medium density residential development. This district generally extends outward from the highest density development located within the urban core. The intent of this district is to provide a transition area of diminishing residential densities. The minimum lot size requirement is designed to limit future subdivisions of land within this district; thereby minimizing any adverse effects to the established residential character of the area.
