R-S
Residential Suburban District
Established to encourage residential type development in portions of the County where one or more public utilities are currently in service or are anticipated to be installed in the future, residential subdivision development is somewhat more likely in this district than in the R-R or R-T districts. Given that residential will be the major use of land in this area, careful attention must be given to the list of nonresidential uses which can take place in order to maximize aesthetics and the overall quality of life in such areas.
