Preservation of desirable land characteristics and open space and <br /> protection of sensitive environmental features such as steep <br /> slopes, poor soils and trees; <br /> <br /> 5. More effective and efficient use of land, open space and public <br /> facilities through the mixing of land uses and assembly and <br /> development of land in larger parcels; and <br /> <br /> 6.

For undeveloped common open space in excess of the 20% <br /> required, an additional one percent (1%) of density may be <br /> allowed for each additional one percent (1%) of undeveloped <br /> common open space, up to a maximum increase in density of <br /> five percent; and <br /> <br />Printed 1Z~28/90 <br /> <br />Page 445 <br /> <br /> <br />
