154.106 COUNTRY CLUB NEIGHBORHOOD DISTRICT (CC-ND).

Vision/Goals.  The Country Club Neighborhood District is an area predominately comprised of large lot subdivisions with the Waynesville Country Club serving as its social and recreational center.  While single-family homes are the dominant residential use in this area, townhouses and accessory apartments are also permitted.
