Zoning
RR-1
Rural Residential 1 District
The RR-1 zoning district encompasses the largest area of the town. Much of this area was originally farmland. The farms augmented income with logging, maple syrup production, and other farm related activity. Rural areas continue to host a variety of uses some of which are a continuation of the old farm and New England tradition of mixed uses in the rural areas. The limited commercial uses, such as retail store, are more likely along major roads while other uses such as a reservoir may be on more lightly travelled roadways. The 1-2 acre lot size means that uses may be in close proximity. Some areas have homes very near to each other on small lots such as Edgebrook Park, Rte. 121, Cambridgeport, and Upper and Lower Bartonsville.; The Rural Residential 1 District allows for moderate-density development in a rural setting.
