The RR rural residential district is established for areas particularly suited for low density residential use and to the raising of crops and a limited number of animals for noncommercial purposes. (Ord. 2005-10, 1-3-2006)

In an RR rural residential district, land may be used and buildings and structures may be erected, maintained and used if they are arranged, intended or designed for the following uses:

Accessory uses, buildings and structures if they are clearly incidental to a permitted use and when placed upon the same lot or parcel with a permitted use.

Agricultural and horticultural uses for domestic purposes.

Home occupations.

Keeping of bovine, sheep, goats and horses under ownership of the resident occupant of the lot; provided, that any combination of such animals on any one lot shall be limited to one animal for every one-fourth (1/4) acre of lot area, unless otherwise modified in chapter 6 of this title. The keeping of such animals shall conform to all other provisions of law governing the same, and no animal, nor any stable, barn or corral, shall be kept or maintained within fifty feet (50') of any dwelling or other building used for human habitation or within one hundred feet (100') of the front line of the lot upon which it is located. There shall be no killing or dressing of any such animals for commercial purposes. The keeping of pigs and/or hogs is prohibited except as provided in subsection 13-6-16A2 of this title.

Manufactured homes subject to the following requirements:

   A.   Any manufactured home must have a manufacture date after 1980, and must pass a safety inspection by a certified building inspector. A manufactured home must have a conversion to real property application filed with the county assessors office prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
