Zoning
R1.5
Residential 1.5 District
The Residential 1.5 (R1.5) District is intended to allow low-density suburban residential use in proximity to the Village of Red Hook and established community and business services. Continuing agricultural use and a range of housing types are encouraged, including single-family detached and attached dwellings, accessory dwelling units and multifamily construction. Use of the cluster subdivision technique is encouraged, in tandem with the Environmental Protection, Flood-Fringe and Scenic Corridor Overlays, to preserve valuable open space, including farmlands, recreational opportunities and other natural resources within the R1.5 District.
