RR
Rural Residential District
The purpose of the Rural Residential District is to allow low density development in a rural setting, while protecting the natural resources and limiting development in those areas of town accessed by unimproved or substandard roads. The Rural Residential District is intended principally for agriculture, forestry, residential dwellings and associated home-based uses. Residential development is encouraged in appropriate locations in a manner that preserves open space and protects natural resources. Only limited commercial uses are allowed, and then only in a manner that avoids unreasonable burdens on town roads and services or other adverse impacts on the rural, residential character of the district.
