Article III. DEVELOPMENTS |
Division 4. LARGE LOT ESTATE DEVELOPMENT |
§ 126-417. Scope.
Large lots with wide frontage result in less drainage and traffic demands than single-family residential developments consisting of small lots with narrow frontages and widths. Therefore, the facility requirements and public impacts of the larger estate-type developments are less intensive. Such developments are desirable for the community to attract and encourage development and should not have to conform to the same standards that apply to the more intense developments. Residential developments undertaken pursuant to this division shall conform to this division and are considered exempt from conflicting provisions specified elsewhere in this chapter.
