RUR
Rural Residential District
Rural residential lands are lands which are already committed to rural development or which appear capable of accommodating a significant proportion of the expected growth in Readsboro.; Some of these lands offer serious limitations for development and will require special attention in evaluating proposals for their development. The land may have an important natural resource value, may be located a significant distance from improved public land or from a village or commercial center, may be classified as vulnerable landscapes, or may border scenic roads. The purpose of the Rural Residential District is to provide for low-intensity uses which are compatible with the potential of the land for agriculture, forestry, or extraction of soil, sand or gravel. These uses shall protect the rural character, scenic and recreational resources, and significant natural, historic and other resources within the Town.
