§ 11.01. Intent.  


Latest version.
  • This district shall be comprised of single family residential uses, including conventional single family homes, garden homes and townhouses. Such developments shall adhere to a Site Plan. The minimum site area shall equal five (5) contiguous acres, with a minimum of twenty percent (20%) of it devoted to recreation/open spaces. The responsibility of maintaining such open spaces shall be borne by a homeowner's association or other similar legal entity. At least fifty percent (50%) of these open spaces shall be utilized for recreational purposes. In comparison to a conventional development of single family homes, a greater efficiency of land development is created, resulting in savings to the home buyer in the form of reduced development costs. The residents share common facilities and have less to perform on home/yard maintenance. There are also provisions for institutional and accessory uses within any such district.
