RR
Rural Residential District
The purpose of the Rural Residential District is to provide for residential development and compatible light industrial & light commercial uses at moderate densities which are easily accessible to Class 2 and 3 public roads. It is anticipated that the bulk of new residential and light commercial growth will take place within this district. Special care should be taken to protect the rural-residential character of this district, to locate proposed development off of productive agricultural lands, and to minimize forest fragmentation. Non-residential development proposed in the RR District shall be carefully reviewed on a case-by-case basis utilizing the standards established under Conditional Use Approval, and elsewhere throughout this Zoning Regulation including, but not limited to General Performance Standards, Landscaping Requirements, and Article 5 Special Regulations, as applicable.
