This district is intended for rural portions of the Town which are characterized by farms, extremely low density residential uses and preservation of open space. In accordance with the Town of Lysander Comprehensive Land Use Plan, preservation of farmland shall be of the highest priority. Properties within this district typically rely upon individual on-site systems for provision of essential water supply and septic disposal. Therefore, in order to ensure adequate separation of these essential systems and to prevent any undue burden upon the natural environment, the required minimum residential lot size is the largest within the Town. The large lot is furthermore intended to promote a separation of farms and unrelated residential uses to protect both activities from the potential adverse effects each has upon the other. The overall level of development within this district is encouraged to be maintained at a low intensity so that the cumulative effects of development are able to be absorbed within the existing unimproved conditions and facilities of the area.
