DcmcmFT 5 V r <br /> Township. The property is zoned <br /> Residential -1 and designated as Rural <br /> Residential on the Land Use Plan . <br /> Seven lots are proposed surrounded by <br /> 6 . 94 acres of common open space. The <br /> average lot size is 0 .91 acre. The appli - <br /> cant has proposed that the lots will be <br /> served by a Class A private road.
