St. John Zoning Regulations

The St. John Board of Realtors website has a good page for St. John Zoning Regulations including information on R-1 Residential - Low Density, R-2 Residential - Low Density One and Two Family, and W-1 Waterfront Pleasure.

An example:

"R-1 Residential - Low Density Much of the land in the Virgin Islands is hilly or mountainous with steep slopes and a minimum amount of soil over a rocky subsurface. These areas are being used for residential purposes, with sewage disposal by means of septic tanks. The minimum lot area for such use should be one-half (1/2) acre, and even this minimum is questionable with respect to adequate disposal of sewage without surfacing of effluent to disturb one's neighbor. Fortunately, there is no conflict with wells that supply drinking water. These zones should be carefully located in relation to subdivision regulations."
