Rural Center District

The C-1, Rural Center District, recognizes the need to provide for areas within Bedford County where residents of the more isolated agricultural and rural residential districts and residents located beyond the limits of service can receive certain merchandising, technical or professional services. In Bedford County, several small rural centers exist, primarily to provide such convenience goods and services to residents of the surrounding areas. These centers serve a necessary economic function, and the mixed land uses that characterize these centers are not particularly detrimental.; This district is intended to be a flexible zone, which is necessary in a rural center. It is designed to allow for change and growth within these areas, but also prevent this mixture of land uses from unnecessarily spreading into the adjacent countryside. This district and its principle ingresses and egresses shall be allowed only on roadways classified as either a collector or arterial as shown on the Major Thoroughfare Plan of Bedford County. The following regulations shall apply in the C-1, Rural Center District, as defined on the Zoning Map of Bedford County, Tennessee.
