[Amended 4-13-1987]
A.Â
Description. These areas contain soils, slopes and forms that, on
the whole, are not desirable for continued agricultural use, that
have already discontinued agricultural production or that never were
in agricultural use. In addition, these areas usually contain less
desirable soils for urban development than the residential-agricultural
and low-density residential zones.
B.Â
Purpose. The purpose of the RF-5A District is to prevent destructive
development of the land, to retain areas for nonintensive uses, to
prevent intensive development where it would be a burden to the Town
and to retain open spaces.
C.Â
Density. Primary uses are as forest land where forestry management
practices are carried out, agricultural production where practical,
single-family home sites at a density not less than five acres per
house, outdoor recreation activities and other very-low-density and
intensity uses desirable for rural areas.
E.Â
Special permit. The following uses will be permitted in the RF-5A
District upon a special permit being obtained from the Board of Appeals:

[Amended 4-13-1987]
A.Â
Description: a district that generally contains soils and slopes
suitable for agriculture and for development. For reasons of access,
topography and possible community facilities and utilities, such land
should not be built on at a high density.
B.Â
Purpose. The purpose of the RA-1A and RA-M-1A Districts is to accommodate
houses at a low density for people wanting to live in a rural atmosphere
but without interfering with prime agricultural areas. The continuation
of forestry and agriculture is strongly encouraged. Other low-intensity
uses are also permitted.
C.Â
Density. A one-acre density is established to retain a rural atmosphere.
This density may be increased to 25,000 square foot lots, if public
water and sewer are provided.

A.Â
Description: areas that generally have suitable soils and slopes
for urban development, are accessible to other population centers,
are feasible to serve with public water and sewer and are generally

which would destroy agricultural pursuits.
C.Â
Density. There are two different densities associated with LDR Districts.
An LDR-25 District allows one dwelling unit for every 25,000 square
feet, and an LDR-15 District allows one dwelling unit for every 15,000
square feet.
