9 <br /> Eden View Acres Narrative <br /> Our goal is to create a community that is as self-sustainable as possible. We will <br /> implement thoughtful building practices, minimal grading and land disturbance, solar <br /> energy, rainwater collection, and a landscape design that focuses on producing food <br /> and useful products for the community. We are proposing Thirty-Eight lots, each lot will <br /> range from 2 to 5 acres. Each lot will have an individual well and septic system, <br /> ensuring that residents have an independent water supply and waste management <br /> system that is tailored to their specific needs. We will identify the most productive <br /> portions of existing fields, pastures, and cropland, and locate building lots on less <br /> productive land. We plan to build efficient, smart homes, sustainably built using the best <br /> quality materials. With options to build accessory dwelling units, we are seeking <br /> attainable housing, and a mixed-income, diverse community. In this Flexible <br /> Development, each Homestead will be located within a short walk of shared green <br /> space. <br /> Eden View Acres will provide residents with an array of exceptional amenities to <br /> enhance their daily life. The Food Forest trail will wind around the farmland fields and by <br /> the houses bringing everyone closer together. Educational stations along the way will <br /> inspire learning and creativity in nature. There are two ponds teaming with birds and fish <br /> that will provide an excellent source of outdoor recreation. The pavilion will serve as a <br /> central gathering spot, where community members can come together for classes, and <br /> events, or simply to relax and recharge in the tranquil surroundings. Additionally, the <br /> development will include two large open spaces or parks for shared use, providing <br /> ample opportunities for residents to enjoy the outdoors. Eighty percent of the homesites <br /> will offer stunning views of the surrounding pastures from the edge the forest, while the <br /> other 20 percent will be nestled further into the forest, offering an emphasis on being <br /> one with nature and minimal footprints. These forested lots will be perfect for those who <br /> want to feel connected to the forest and all the natural beauty it provides. While those <br /> on the edge of the forest while looking over the meadows, will enjoy the tranquility of the <br /> long view over the pastures that have been grazing cattle for over two centuries. The <br /> community's character will flow effortlessly into the nearby farms and communities, <br /> creating a sense of unity and belonging. Eden View Acres will be an exceptional place <br /> to live, work, and play, with amenities and surroundings that promote a healthy, <br /> sustainable, and fulfilling lifestyle. <br /> Eden View Acres will host three parks, all connected by a walking trail that will <br /> wind around the forest and into the farmland fields. The trails will be landscaped using <br />
