(A) The Comprehensive Plan encourages housing development around existing town centers where existing utilities, educational institutions and public safety services are already in place.
(B) Therefore, development criteria have been established to limit development density unless close to the appropriate infrastructure.
(1) Number of lots. The number of lots in any subdivision shall be as indicated in the applicable Residential Use and Requirements Table of Chapter 157 of this code. The number of acres used in determination of the number of lots shall exclude areas designated as primary conservation areas. In determination of lots, any fraction of less than 1/2 shall be disregarded, while a fraction 1/2 or greater shall be counted as one lot.
(2) Industrial and commercial subdivisions. Lot size and number of lots for commercial and industrial subdivisions shall be dictated by the private market.
