Rural Residence District
It is the purpose of this section to encourage residential development which will blend with existing agricultural uses and perpetuate the rural atmosphere of the area. With such restrictions it will be possible for limited residential uses to develop while preserving natural features and scenic landscapes. It is also the purpose of this section to provide sufficient space for on-lot sewage disposal which will not create any menace to public health. In this manner, sufficient open space will be retained thus reducing the need for such municipal facilities.
