SECTION 47 * RURAL SETTLEMENT COMMERCIAL USES (RRC) ZONE 47.1 GENERAL PURPOSE OF THE RRC ZONE This zone provides for a limited range of commercial uses that serve the surrounding rural area. This zone can be combined with the Neighbourhood Facility (NF) Zone to also permit a limited range of small-scale facility uses. Lot area and lot frontage requirements are higher because in the short term no public services will be available and private sewer septic systems will be required. Yard requirements are also higher and combined with site plan control will minimize any impacts.
