A-1
Agricultural Residential District
The purpose of the A-1 and A-2 Districts is to encourage the orderly development of open lands and the continuation of farms and, in light thereof, to require future development to protect views, wooded areas, mature isolated trees, tree lines and environmentally sensitive areas. The A-3 District is to accommodate those areas with established patterns of smaller lot sizes. Cluster development is permitted in the A-1 District in an effort to maintain properly coordinated open spaces, floodplains, wooded tracts, reduced street distances and the perpetuation of farming activity.
