The RA-1 residential-agricultural zone has been established for the primary purpose of providing a location where residential development associated with limited numbers of livestock can be maintained. This zone is currently characterized by large lots or tracts of land interspersed by dwellings, barns, corrals and agricultural service buildings used in connection with farming operations. While the zone is thus characterized, it is intended that the land within this zone shall be further developed into a residential environment exclusive of animals and fowl. Builders and developers of property should bear in mind therefore, that primacy is given in this zone to residential development and that the raising of animals and fowl will likely be curtailed as residential development takes place.

In order to accomplish the objectives and purposes of this title and to stabilize and protect the essential characteristics of this zone, the following regulations shall apply in the RA-1 residential-agricultural zone. (Prior code § 27-19-1)
