For plans proposing less than 10 lots, the maximum number of
lots for an open space subdivision shall be determined by taking the
number of buildable lots that would result for the same parcel in
a conventional subdivision design plan and applying this resulting
number to a cluster of lots to be located on land with a minimum of
one acre of buildable land per lot. For open space subdivision plans
proposing 10 or more lots, the lot yield may be increased by 10%,
each lot to be a minimum of one acre of buildable land per lot.
Open space areas within an open space subdivision shall be dedicated using one of the methods outlined in Article
V, §
295-25. The application shall suggest which of the foregoing entities is proposed to own the open space, but the Commission, as part of any approval of such application, may modify such designation to require ownership by an entity set forth above. The provisions of the Ashford Zoning Regulations set forth applicable criteria and limitations for such matters as development restrictions and covenants, instruments of open space conveyance, boundary designations, recording, rights to enforce, and association requirements, but the Commission shall review the proposed method for final disposition of all open space.
Except as otherwise provided in these regulations, all open
space subdivision plans and applications as well as conventional subdivision
plans and applications submitted must meet the procedural and substantive
requirements of these regulations and the Ashford Zoning Regulations,
as may be amended.
