The applicants have redesigned <br /> Ram' s Woods with five lots on a private road. <br /> The property is located at the end of Crossroads <br /> Church Cemetery Road (SR 1131) in the northwest <br /> corner of Chapel Hill Township.

These lots will be served by individual <br /> wells and septic tanks. The property is <br /> zoned Residential-1 and designated as Rural <br /> Residential on the Land Use Plan. <br /> III <br /> Attached is a private road justification for a <br /> Class A private road to access the five lots . <br /> It states that the rural character of the area <br /> will be preserved by including: <br /> 1. Larger lots than are required. <br /> 2 . Larger setbacks than required. <br /> 3. Restrictive covenants to prohibit further <br /> subdivision. <br /> All applicable agencies have reviewed the <br /> preliminary plan for Ram' s Woods.
