This chapter may be cited as the Village of Franklin Single-Family Planned Residential Development Option. It is the intent of this chapter to permit an optional means of development of single-family residential properties through design alternatives. This chapter is not intended to create any additional rights on the part of any property owner nor as an addition to any of the permitted uses allowed in Chapter 1250. The grant or denial of permission to utilize the Single- Family Planned Residential Development Option will be based upon the criteria hereinafter set forth, giving realization to the increased public importance of protecting natural assets while preserving the integrity and density of the single-family zoning districts consistent with the character of residential development of the Village of Franklin. Subject to the terms of this chapter, this option will be applicable to those areas where a modification to the Schedule of Regulations may be permitted without impairing or threatening the public health, safety or welfare, and where utilization of this option will result in the preservation of natural assets which might otherwise be destroyed by virtue of conventional subdividing or development of property. Except as set forth in this chapter, all requirements and provisions of Chapter 1250 shall be fully applicable, including those requirements set forth in the Schedule of Regulations provided in Appendix B following the text of this Zoning Code, as amended from time to time.
