Varied Lot Layout. <br /> <br />Varied Lot Layout is a technique used to allow for a combination of lot sizes and residential uses <br />within a subdivision to make the new development compatible with adjacent property when the <br />existing land uses are of different densities or uses. Generally, the subdivision will have two or <br />three sets of lots of similar size and use. If Varied Lot Layout is used as a Transitioning <br />Technique, the following design requirements shall be included to provide a transition between <br />existing low density rural residential development and higher density urban residential <br />development. <br /> <br />(i) <br /> <br />Layout. Lot layout shall be designed such that each set of lots will be <br />compatible with the existing adjacent residential neighborhoods with regards to <br />density and use. A majority of larger set of lots within the subdivision shall be <br />adjacent to the existing lower density residential neighborhoods.. <br /> <br />(2) <br /> <br />(3) <br /> <br />Maximum Density. Maximum density of a subdivision requiring transitioning <br />shall be that as required by the zoning district. <br /> <br />Roads. Where possible, Curvilinear roads shall be used to create a more rural <br />setting and thus assist in the transition between rural residential areas and urban <br />residential areas. <br /> <br />(4) <br /> <br />Acei~ptable patterns. The developer may distribute lots according to, but not <br />limited to, the following patterns, tiered, coved, random, or grouped. Additional <br />concepts and information are contained in the Density Transitioning Guidelines, <br />available at the City. <br /> <br />Ditached <br /> <br />Lot Lavout <br /> <br />Draft Report 02/13/01 <br />Page 7 of 8 <br /> <br />-215- <br /> <br /> <br />
