Zoning
R8
Rural Residential District
Generally, the Rural Residential District, R-8, is intended for application to rural areas of the county which remain inside the primary service area where utilities and urban services are planned but not yet fully available and where urban development may be expected in the near future. The district may also be applied to certain outlying areas where residences exist at similar densities or may be appropriate in view of housing needs. The district is intended to maintain a rural environment suitable for farming, forestry and low-density rural residence, together with certain recreational and public or semipublic and institutional uses, until such time as an orderly expansion of urban development is appropriate.
