This district is intended to protect and stabilize areas which are currently zoned ER-1 and may have been subdivided or developed under the former A-3 Zoning District provisions. It is intended only to provide a "grandfather" provision to minimize hardship and inconvenience on existing settlements. Such areas are not intended to be expanded nor new areas changed to this district. This district is intended to provide an orderly and protected transition between general agriculture areas and areas experiencing nonagricultural development, principally those of residential development concentration. The ER-1 Existing Residential District is intended to protect existing housing resources and to provide for orderly development of new, in-fill housing resources within these existing districts.
