Special exception uses. The Zoning Hearing Board is authorized to grant special exceptions for uses according to § 300-55 for applications meeting the following criteria:
No commercial activity shall be permitted except the
charging of admission, the sale of refreshments or such other purpose
that is clearly incidental to permitted outdoor activities.
The manner, location and hours of operations and of
deliveries to the premises shall be compatible with the daily cycle
of active and quiet periods associated with any adjacent residential
uses.
Natural and landscaped areas. All portions of a tract
not occupied by buildings and required improvements shall be maintained
as landscaped areas consisting of natural environmental features and/or
planted vegetation.
Subdivision of a tract. The subdivision of a tract
of land into lots may occur only for financial purposes and not so
as to permit individual lots to be treated as independent parcels
for separate development at a future time. Subdivision of a tract
may occur only when deed restrictions are executed and recorded that
maintain the lots as an integral part of a total tract land development.
Intent. The OS Open Space District is intended to
preserve parkland, game lands, forests, conservation tracts and other
designated community resource areas for their perpetual use and enjoyment
as open space by the residents of the Township.
