e 14 Where the minimum required lot size is less than five acres, compliance is assured when each lot in the subdivision contains at least twice the minimum required lot size; and/or (The proposed subdivision is located in the University Lake Protected Watershed where 2-acre lots may be created from lots which existed as of 1012189. One-acre minimum lot sizes are permitted through clustering. The average lot size proposed in Glynmorgan is 2.3 acres, with an average density of one unit per 3.66 acres. Larger setbacks are not meaningful or necessary because the house locations are limited to the sites shown on the Preliminary and Final Plats) b. The retention and/or provision of landscaping and use of clustering of dwelling units to screen the view of the subdivision from public roads and/or maintain a wooded or forested character, maintain scenic views, or preserve wildlife, botanical, historic, archaeological and/or recreation sites. (A cluster subdivision is proposed which will not be visible from the State maintained roads. Restrictive covenants will be required with the Preliminary Plan to ensure protection and maintenance of the open space including the wildlife corridor. The forested character of the site will be maintained because the placement of houses and driveways will be limited to the locations shown on the Preliminary and Final Plats.) c. The preservation of site features which directly enhance the special or unique cultural, historical,archaeological, or geological characteristics of the immediate area. (The open space and restrictive covenants required with the cluster subdivision as proposed will serve to protect natural and visual resources.) 2. The number, location and/or size of lots to be located in the subdivision are such that, even if constructed to State standards, the streets would not be accepted by the State for maintenance due to density or other State requirements; (South Still Crossing is questionable as to whether it is eligible for State maintenance depending on driveway locations North Still Crossing and Glynmorgan Way may be accepted by the State if built to State standards and the minimum density requirements are satisfied. Refer to the Staff response regarding density requirements on page 1.)
