RR
Rural Residential District
The purpose of the Rural Residential (RR) District is to define an area of the Town where residential uses situated in a rural landscape constitute the primary land use. Public water and sewer does not exist in this area. Single- and two-family homes are the predominant form of development. Agriculture is also expected to be a substantial land use well into the future.
