Anywhere from 301 to 340 units are allowed according to the 2001 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Royal Oaks Realty is showing a total of 261 dwelling units. The property contains 86.71 acres with 28.02 of these acres classified as wetlands. The preliminary plat shows a gross density of 3.01 units per acre. When the wetlands are factored out, the net density for the whole development is 4.47 units per acre. The following table shows how much space each type of land use proposes to use and its gross and net density. : DevelOpment :Site':~ :!Toi:aI.
