RR1
Rural Residential One-Acre District
The purpose of the rural residential one-acre district is to prevent a class of lots created under the prior zoning ordinance from becoming nonconforming. One acre lots were previously allowed in the former agricultural district and many were created. The goals of the county comprehensive plan discourage this size of lot in rural areas. The RR1 district is created to allow rebuilding of single-family residences on previously created one acre lots if the current structure is destroyed. The RR1 district is a closed district, however, and no new RR1 districts shall be allowed. For more information concerning how the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan relate to each zoning district, refer to Table 107-147-3 at the end of article VII of this chapter.
