ARTICLE III
Agricultural-Conservation (A-C) District and Low-Density Residential R-80, R-120, R-
200 and R-400 Districts
[Last amended 1-10-1989 by L.L. No. 1-19891
§ 280-12. Purpose.
The purpose of the Agricultural-Conservation (A-C) District and the Low-Density Residential
R-80, R-120, R-200 and R-400 Districts is to reasonably control and, to the extent possible,
prevent the unnecessary loss of those currently open lands within the Town containing large
and contiguous areas of prime agricultural soils which are the basis for a significant portion
of the Town's economy and those areas with sensitive environmental features, including
aquifer recharge areas and bluffs. In addition, these areas provide the open rural environment
so highly valued by year-round residents and those persons who support the Town of
Southold's recreation, resort and second-home economy. The economic, social and aesthetic
benefits which can be obtained for all citizens by limiting loss of such areas are well
documented and have inspired a host of governmental programs designed, with varying
degrees of success, to achieve this result. For its part, the Town is expending large sums of
money to protect existing farm acreage. At the same time, the Town has an obligation to
exercise its authority to reasonably regulate the subdivision and development of this land to
further the same purposes while honoring the legitimate interests of farmers and other
farmland owners.

In permitting these uses, the Town Board recognizes that the residents historically
have operated small businesses which provide services to the community from
their homes. The Board finds that these businesses have not impacted negatively
on the appearance of these residential zones. In the Board's judgment, it finds that
in order to maintain the economic viability of the Town, to maintain the rural
quality of life and in the interests of the welfare of the residents, these businesses
(or home occupations) should be permitted to continue. In setting forth the
following subsections, the Board intends to permit as of right certain business
uses in residential zones with the understanding that these uses are to be
conducted in a manner that will not alter the character of the residential
neighborhoods. The Board believes that the following subsections provide
sufficient safeguards to accomplish that aim. These uses shall be permitted,
provided that:
(a) No display of products shall be visible from the street, and no stock-in-
trade shall be kept on the premises.
(b) Such occupation is incidental to the residential use of the premises and is
carried on in the main building by the residents therein with not more than
one nonresident assistant for whom off-street parking must be provided on

all floors of the main building, and in no event shall such use occupy more
than 500 square feet of floor area.
