The R-4 District recognizes the existing physical constraints of the rugged topography and the limitations that the soil and geologic conditions present for adequate drainage and filtration of septic effluent. Limited development on large lots is the objective considering the practical unavailability of sewers and central water facilities, the remoteness from improved road access and the desire to continue the rural character of development still prevailing in these areas of the Township. Residential clustering shall be permitted in this zone to conserve open space and environmentally sensitive land areas and provide reasonable lot sizes consistent with planning principles.; R-4 Zones further provide for appropriate outdoor recreation activities and tourism opportunities in compatibility with the environment and rural character of the Township.
