Rural Residential District
Rural Residential lands include a mix of residential, agriculture, forestry, and outdoor recreation. They are residential areas that are easily accessible by the existing road network.; The purpose of Rural Residential Districts is to provide for low to moderate density housing while maintaining a rural feel. These areas should be used to accommodate residential growth, but in a manner that preserves the rural character of the land, and is sensitive to physical limitations on development. Site specific habitat preservation (e.g., streams, wetlands, vernal pools) and preservation of landscape for resource use (forestry, agriculture and outdoor recreation) should be considered.
