Rural Residential District

The purpose of this District is to provide for the platted development of low-density residential neighborhoods that retain the character of the basically rural area and yet allow an influx of residential development. This district is limited to those areas of Ford County where adequate water, sewage disposal and other infrastructure presently exists; or may be approved outside such areas only when adequate water, sewage disposal and other infrastructure, as well as the delivery of support services can be demonstrated and proved to the satisfaction of the County. The density of any individual proposed development shall be determined by the adequacy of the site to meet the development standards and policies of these and all other Ford County rules and regulations, including but not limited to the Subdivision Regulations, Environmental/Sanitary Code, soil suitability classification, and other such factors that will justify and support such proposed density. The burden of proof for such proposed density shall be on the person proposing the development and the County may deem any and all such proof as necessary before any approval of the project may be granted.
