NUMBER OF UNITS: 72 UNITS PER 100 ACRES <br />(DENSITY) <br />REQUIRED OPEN SPACE * *: 67% OF TRACT <br />SPECIAL CONDITIONS: Option D developments should <br />utilize public water and sewer where possible. Where <br />public water and sewer extension is not cost - effective, <br />the use of community alternative wastewater systems <br />would be permitted. The use of such systems would be <br />contingent on participation in a Monitoring and <br />Maintenance program adopted by the County, and such <br />systems should also be built to public specifications. <br />5. OPTION E (RURAL VILLAGE) <br />Allows for the development of a "Rural Village ", a <br />planned residential community with a small -scale <br />village -level commercial /service core. The overall <br />residential density of this Rural Village would be 0.84 <br />(84 units per 100 acres). In order to develop under <br />this option, four - fifths, or 80 %, of the tract must be <br />left in open space (either agricultural or natural). <br />NUMBER OF UNITS: 84 UNITS PER 100 ACRES <br />(DENSITY) <br />REQUIRED OPEN SPACE * *: 80% OF TRACT <br />SPECIAL CONDITIONS: Option E is significantly different <br />from other residential options, and should therefore, be <br />permitted with the following conditions: <br />A minimum tract size of 200 acres shall be <br />required for development of a Rural Village. <br />Public water and sewer extension is required. <br />Rural Village developments shall be permitted <br />only within a defined "Development Sector ", to <br />be analyzed and defined in the future through <br />cooperation with local governments and utility <br />entities. Such a sector would factor in the <br />location of arterial and - collector roadways and <br />feasible public utility-extension to create a <br />logical, cost- effective and easily- defined <br />corridor where such developments would be <br />encouraged. <br />Rural Village developments should be located <br />within one -mile of arterial or collector road- <br />ways for traffic management reasons. Such <br />developments should not be located on inter- <br />sections, and should be buffered from roadways. <br />�` Aw4a <br />
