1 , <br /> 233 <br /> D.4 Village Option <br /> Villages represent a modified form of cluster development intended to serve as physical, social, and economic focal <br /> points in rural portions of the county. Consequently, villages are appropriate locations for civic uses, such as schools <br /> and churches,as well as a variety of economic fiinctions,including stores and woricshops,and residential building types <br /> designed to accommodate a range of socio-economic groups. <br /> The location, size, and composition of each village will be a <br /> function of the development potential of the land associated with the settlement, including, but not limited to: - i- — <br /> • The zoning of the site, including the maximum ` <br /> allowable member of dwelling units; <br /> • The method of water S°PP1Y and sewage po sal <br /> � <br /> including the number of approved disposal sites; <br /> • The presence of Primary and Secondary Conservation <br /> Areas,including contiguous areas located on adjoining rj <br /> properties; I i '� `� ; • •---- <br /> • The presence of existing and/or proposed transit routes j 1� <br /> and corridors, and areas of future urban growth; e.g., ■ _— <br /> Transition Areas; and - <br /> Under the village approach, housing units are <br /> • The presence of protected watersheds, including clustered around a center, including a commons or <br /> defined critical areas• green, all surrounded by open space (Loudoun <br /> County General Plan). <br /> To this end,villages must meet the following general standards: <br /> • The village proper is the village,comprised of residential units with associated commercial,office,and service <br /> functions. <br /> • The village proper may not exceed 100 acres in size and shall be built in a compact manner so as to <br /> permit pedestrian accessibility to its center within a five minute walk. <br /> • The village proper is to be distinguished from the village conservancy by a well-defined "edge" of <br /> closely spaced buildings in contrast with the open space of the conservancy. <br /> • A village proper may not be located closer than one-half mile from the edge of another village proper, <br /> and every effort shall be made to keep the separate settlements visually distinct. <br /> • The village proper is to be built in a generally rectilinear pattern of interconnecting streets, defined <br /> by buildings, street furniture, and landscaping, as places to be shared equally by pedestrians and <br /> automobiles. <br /> • A hierarchy of padre and squares is to be provided and distributed strategically throughout the village <br /> and culminate in a central civic space called the Village Greece. <br /> • Village lots shall be restricted from further subdivision through deed restrictions and/or permanent <br /> conservation easements. <br /> Fleuible Development 19 <br />
