A. Under the Cluster Housing option, a subdivision can contain no more lots than would otherwise be allowed for a conventional subdivision in the same zoning district, but the individual lots within the development can be smaller than required in a conventional subdivision. Smaller lot sizes within a Cluster Housing development are required to be offset by a corresponding increase in Common Open Space.
B. Cluster Housing developments require that planning for lots and the locations of houses on the lots be done at the same time. Because the allowable building envelope of each house is predetermined, greater flexibility in development standards is possible while assuring that the residential character of the zoning district is maintained.
(Ord. 170-04. Passed 3-23-04.)
The dwelling types permitted in the applicable zoning district may be included in a Cluster Housing development. The proposed building envelope for all dwellings must be shown on the subdivision plat with enough detail so that compliance with required density and dimensional standards can be determined.
(Ord. 170-04. Passed 3-23-04.)
The overall Cluster Housing development may not exceed the maximum density of the applicable zoning district. Site design and other constraints may work to limit maximum density more than the stated maximums. There shall be no right of approval of maximum density.

A 47.30 gross site area has 0.62 acres in existing right-of-way resulting in a developable parcel of 46.68 acres including flood hazard areas. The parcel is located in the RS9 Single-Dwelling Residential district, which has a maximum density of four units per acre for Cluster Housing per the Residential District Table in Section 1106.0101. The project site could contain 187 units
(46.68 x 4 = 186.72 or 187 units) on 187 lots.
(Ord. 170-04. Passed 3-23-04.)
