Residential Low Density District

The Residential Low Density (RLD) Zoning District is intended to permit proposed residential development and existing single-family detached dwelling lot/units in established neighborhoods to provide for low density urban residential (stick-built or modular unit) zoning lot development. This district may accommodate residential at a density not to exceed three single-family detached dwelling units per gross acre with public utilities. Traditional subdivision development not using any of the uses listed herein shall develop lots at a minimum of 14,500 square feet per lot. Optional development in this district also includes forestry management, public or private parks and greenways and open space development, which require public utilities, is permitted in accordance with Article F Use Regulations, section 9-1255, l(4). The Town may extend public utilities, the transportation system and/or other infrastructure networks into or through this district. As the Town's infrastructure network is expanded or extended, a relative change may be reflected in development density, typically reflected through a change in zoning district classification.
