A. 
Statement and purpose. The Town has recognized in its Corridor Studies and its Comprehensive Zoning that there are limited residential areas, such as a portion of the east side of Buckley Road between Melvin Drive and Vickery Street, which by reason of the nature and amount of traffic and other conditions may cause the value of homes to be diminished resulting in deterioration of the neighborhood. To offset such possible trend, the Town wishes to provide an alternate and compatible use for these areas to preserve value and appearance of the neighborhood.

(1)

(2) 
The original residential character and any style of any existing house shall be preserved or enhanced and any new or replacement building shall maintain the residential style and character of the neighborhood.

Take advantage of existing infrastructure and resources available on site and encourage development compatible with existing land use and contours on the site.
