21 <br /> (The proposed roads are neither arterial or collectors.) <br /> 5. The subdivision roads are part of a non-residential development consisting of <br /> office, retail, industrial, and similar businesses, each located on a separate lot. <br /> This provision shall only apply to that portion of a subdivision being developed <br /> for non-residential purposes. <br /> (The subdivision roads are proposed for residential development.) <br /> However, private roads may be allowed in a subdivision where, in the judgment of the <br /> Planning Board and with the approval of the Board of County Commissioners, it is <br /> found that the nature and location of the subdivision with respect to other <br /> development and the Comprehensive Plan are such that a private road is justified. <br /> In determining whether-to permit private roads in subdivisions, the following design <br /> features will be considered: <br /> 1. The location and design of the subdivision is such that it clearly preserves the <br /> rural character of the County through: <br /> a. The provision of lot sizes and building setback lines significantly <br /> greater than required by ordinance provisions. Compliance with this <br /> standard is assured in University Lake Watershed where a subdivision <br /> is required to provide a minimum required lot size of five acres. <br /> Where the minimum required lot size is less than five acres, compliance <br /> is assured when each lot in the subdivision contains at least twice the <br /> minimum required lot size. For example, if the minimum required lot <br /> size is two acres, and each lot contains at least four acres, compliance is <br /> assured; and/or <br /> (Lots in the subdivision average 1.73 acres, .11 acre less than twice the <br /> minimum lot area of.92 acres. Proposed building setback lines will <br /> be larger than required by the ordinance on at least 35 of the 45 <br /> proposed lots. Front setbacks of 125 feet are required on four lots. <br /> Front setbacks of 75 feet are required on 13 lots. Rear setbacks are <br /> increased to 40 feet on seven lots adjacent to Spoon Lake. Rear <br /> setbacks on lots adjacent to the stream range from about 25 feet to <br /> about 60 feet greater than required due to the conservation easement.) <br /> b. The retention and/or provision of landscaping and use of clustering of <br /> dwelling units to screen the view of the subdivision from public roads, <br /> maintain a wooded or forested character, maintain scenic views, or <br /> preserve wildlife, botanical, historic, archaeological and/or recreation <br /> sites; <br /> (The site is mostly wooded. Proposed dwelling units will be screened <br /> from High Rock Road by and existing trees within the 75 foot <br /> conservation easement proposed along High Rock Road. Retention of <br /> existing vegetation within a 250 foot conservation easement centered on <br /> the stream will and a 5-acre arboretum set aside for passive use by the <br /> residents of the subdivision will maintain and preserve the wooded <br /> character of the site.) <br /> 2. The number, location and/or size of lots to be located in the subdivision are <br /> such that, even if constructed to State standards, the streets would not be <br /> 2 <br />
