R-40,000
Residence District
The purpose of the R-40,000 Residence District is primarily to provide a location for single-family residential development, the individual lots of which generally contain a minimum of 40,000 sq ft. This district is generally not intended to be served with public water or sewerage facilities although in special situations, it may be. The district would generally coincide with areas designated for low-density residential development on the Master Plan.
