Village Center District
The purpose of this district is to recognize the village centers of Rupert and West Rupert by allowing mixed-use development that is compatible in scale and character with historic structures and traditional settlement patterns. The intent of this district is to implement the goals and policies of the Rupert Town Plan Specifically the town plan calls for these regulations to: Allow a mix of uses within the town’s traditional hamlets including small commercial businesses, mixed uses and manufacturing enterprises that are in keeping with their scale and character; Allow for intensive residential and commercial development within designated village districts to reinforce and revitalize these areas as the town’s traditional centers; Incorporate standards within designated village districts to ensure that lot size and configurations reflect traditional settlement patterns; Allow for the adaptive reuse of historic structures in a manner that maintains their historic integrity and character; and Reinforce the town’s traditional settlement pattern by locating public facilities that serve as focal points of the community and are intended for public access within hamlets.
