§ 153.170 PURPOSE.
   (A)   The purpose of this subchapter is to:
      (1)   Provide development regulations for tiny house villages, which support a diversity of housing choices to meet a wide variety of housing needs;
      (2)   Encourage creation of more usable space for residents of tiny house village developments through flexibility in lot standards;
      (3)   Ensure that the overall size, including bulk and mass of tiny house village structures remains smaller and incurs less visual impact than standard size single-family dwellings, particularly given allowed intensity of tiny house village developments;
      (4)   Provide a centrally located and functional common open space area that fosters a sense of community and a sense of openness in tiny house village developments;
      (5)   Provide private areas around the individual tiny house dwellings to enable diversity in landscape design and foster a sense of ownership; and
      (6)   Ensure minimal visual impact from vehicular use and storage areas for residents of the tiny house village development as well as adjacent properties, and to maintain a detached single-family character along public streets.
