The Rural Residential RR District is established to provide areas for rural residential development that do not impact agricultural lands or create further sprawling patterns of development. The district is located adjacent to areas of existing residential development as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Further residential development is encouraged for these areas. Single lot or minor subdivisions of low density are anticipated in these areas due to the limited availability of community facilities. The RR District area is adjacent to the agricultural district; however, agricultural uses are not encouraged because this district is comprised primarily of small lots. The regulations for this district are designed to protect and stabilize these essential development characteristics and promote and encourage quality rural development.
Permitted uses
