Residence, Single-family 20,000 Square Foot District
This district recognizes and is intended to preserve the principally single-family residential development pattern within the Town's established neighborhoods by promoting continuing opportunity for single-family residential and smaller-scale community facility uses within these neighborhoods consistent with their established character. To the extent undeveloped land within this district is available for major subdivision, the use of open space preservation techniques such as clustering of homes is encouraged in order to establish links to existing open space areas.
