AG/R
Agricultural-Residential District
The purpose of the Agricultural-Residential District AGIR is to preserve and protect the decreasing supply of prime agricultural land. This District also is designed to control the indiscriminate infiltration of urban development in agricultural areas which adversely effect agricultural operators. District AGIR affords adequate opportunity to satisfy individual housing preferences and permits not more than one single-family dwelling per lot or specified minimum area. Two-family dwellings are a conditionally permitted use, subject to approval of the Board of Zoning Appeals.
