Agricultural District

The A Agricultural District is designed primarily for agricultural uses, such as keeping livestock or tending a farm, and other uses that are incidental to an agricultural use, as well as limited single-family uses. There are two primary purposes for the A district. First, one purpose would be to help protect and preserve areas for agricultural uses and rural residential development. Second, another purpose would be to be a temporary or holding district. The district would function as a temporary or holding district for territory that has just been annexed into the Town until a more permanent zoning district is assigned. The A district would also be appropriate for areas where development would not be appropriate at the current time due to lack of utilities or Town services, to preserve areas that are unsuitable for development due to hazards such as flooding, to provide permanent greenbelts to preserve open spaces, and to allow open space as a buffer around uses that might be objectionable or pose environmental hazards. Developments in an A district may be constructed with rural street sections. Said rural street sections may be constructed with open drainage ditches and without sidewalks.
