CP
Clustered Preservation District
The CP Clustered Preservation District accommodates lands which were zoned A-1 Suburban Home Residential District and R-1 (Single-Family Residential) Districts within the Urban Growth Area or were divided through a cluster development certificate of survey prior to the effective date of these revised Zoning Regulations. The District also provides a suitable zoning district for medium density residential development within the Urban Growth Area while preserving agricultural lands and open space by clustering development. Existing A-1 Zoning outside of the urban growth area will convert to the CP District with the adoption of these regulations.
