R-5
Agricultural/Rural Residence District
It is the purpose of this article to encourage and promote rural open space and conservation uses in the R-5 Zone, while also permitting low-density single-family residential development which will blend with existing uses and perpetuate the rural atmosphere of the area. Accordingly, the district incorporates a density standard which, among other things, provides for farm and low-density dwelling uses, discourages isolated higher density development but permits rural cluster subdivision as conditional uses and facilitates the conservation of agricultural and woodland areas and surface and underground water supplies and the control of soil erosion and surface water flooding.; In the R-5 Agricultural/Rural Residence District, the following regulations shall apply.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
