The primary purpose of the R Zone is to promote a continuation of the rural character of the area, characterized by farming, a mixture of sparsely developed residential uses, and other small-scale nonagricultural, nonresidential uses. The R Zone is not likely to be served by public sewer service or public water service within the foreseeable future; therefore, larger lot sizes are indicated. The R Zone generally includes areas not possessing prime agricultural soils; nonetheless, its sparse development contributes to the Township's overall rural flavor.
