A. 
Specific intent. In addition to the objectives established in Article 1 herein and in conformance with the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code[1] (Act of 1968, P.L. 805, No. 247 as reenacted and amended), it is the specific intent of the Conservation Overlay district to:
(1) 
Conserve open land, including those areas containing unique and sensitive natural features such as woodlands, steep slopes, streams, floodplains and wetlands, by setting them aside from development.
(2) 
Provide greater design flexibility and efficiency in the siting of services and infrastructure, including the opportunity to reduce length of roads, utility runs, and the amount of paving required for residential development.
(3) 
Reduce erosion and sedimentation by the retention of existing vegetation, and the minimization of development on steep slopes.
(4) 
Protect areas of the Township with productive agricultural soils for continued or future agricultural use; by conserving blocks of land large enough to allow for efficient farm operations.
(5) 
Conserve a variety of irreplaceable and environmentally sensitive resource lands, including provisions for reasonable incentives to create an open space system for the benefit of present and future residents.
(6) 
Create neighborhoods with direct visual access to open land, with amenities in the form of neighborhood open space, and with a strong neighborhood identity.
(7) 
Provide for the conservation and maintenance of open land within the municipality to achieve the above-mentioned goals and for active or passive recreational use by residents.
(8) 
Provide multiple options for landowners in order to minimize impacts on environmental resources (sensitive lands such as wetlands, floodplain, and steep slopes) and disturbance of natural or cultural features such as mature woodlands, hedgerows and tree lines, critical wildlife habitats, historic buildings, and fieldstone walls.
(9) 
Conserve scenic views and elements of the municipality's rural character by minimizing views of new development from existing roads.
[1]
Editor's Note: See 53 P.S. § 10101 et seq.
B. 
Applicability. Shall apply as outlined in § 450-212, Table of land uses by district.
C. 
Open space requirements.
(1) 
The total open space required equals the primary conservation area, plus the minimum percentage of adjusted tract area set forth for the development option chosen below.
(2) 
Required open space shall comply with the open space or common open space land use and design standards in § 450-354.
D. 
Density determination. Applicants shall have the choice of two methods of determining the maximum permitted residential building density on their properties. They are as follows:
(1) 
Adjusted tract area approach. Determination of the maximum number of permitted dwelling units on any given property shall be based upon the adjusted tract area of the site divided by the density factor set forth below. The adjusted tract area equals the gross tract area minus the constrained land (see Exhibit A[2] for calculation worksheet).
(a) 
Constrained land equals the sum of the following:
[1] 
All land within the rights-of-way of existing public streets or highways, or within the rights-of-way for existing or proposed overhead rights-of-way of utility lines;
[2] 
All land under existing private streets;
[3] 
Wetlands: multiply the acreage of designated wetlands by 1.0;
[4] 
Floodway: multiply the acreage within the floodway by 1.0;
[5] 
Floodplains: multiply the nonwetland portion of the 100-year floodplain by 1.0;
[6] 
Steep slopes: multiply the acreage of land with natural ground slopes exceeding 25% by 0.80;
[7] 
Extensive rock outcroppings: multiply the total area of rock outcrops and boulder fields more than 1,000 square feet by 0.90; and
[8] 
Moderately steep slopes: multiply the acreage of land with natural ground slopes of between 15% and 25% by 0.25.
(b) 
If a portion of the tract is underlain by more than one natural feature subject to a resource protection factor, that acreage shall be subject to the most restrictive resource protection factor.
(c) 
Since acreage that is contained within the public or private rights-of-way, access easements or access strips are excluded from developable lot area, any portion of these items that also contains a natural feature subject to a deduction from the total tract acreage should not be included when calculating the adjusted tract area.
(d) 
Permitted dwelling units. The maximum number of permitted dwelling units equals the adjusted tract area divided by the density factor set forth below.
[2]
Editor's Note: See § 450-211H(3).
(2) 
Yield plan approach. Determination of density, or maximum number of permitted dwelling units, shall be based upon an actual layout using the minimum lot size of the underlying zone, as demonstrated by an actual yield plan. Yield plans shall meet the following requirements:
(a) 
Yield plans must be prepared as conceptual layout plans in accordance with the standards of Chapter 435, Subdivision and Land Development, containing proposed lots, streets, rights-of-way, and other pertinent features. Yield plans must be drawn to scale and be based on a field survey. It must be a realistic layout reflecting a development pattern that could reasonably be expected to be implemented, taking into account the presence of wetlands, floodplains, steep slopes, existing easements or encumbrances and, if unsewered, the suitability of soils for subsurface sewage disposal.
(b) 
The yield plan must identify the site's primary resources, as identified in the existing resources/site analysis plan, and demonstrate that the primary resources could be successfully absorbed in the development process without disturbance, by allocating this area to proposed single-family dwelling lots which conform to the density factory of the chosen option.
(c) 
On sites not served by central sewage disposal, density shall be further determined by evaluating the number of homes that could be supported by individual septic systems on conventional lots. Based on the primary resources, identified as part of the inventory and analysis, and observations made during an on-site visit of the property, the Township shall select a 10% sample of the lots considered to be marginal for on-lot sewage disposal. The applicant is required to provide evidence that these lots meet the standards for an individual septic system. The applicant shall be granted the full density determined by the yield plan. Should any of the lots in a sample fail to meet the standard for individual septic system, those lots shall be deducted from the yield plan and a second 10% sample shall be selected by the Municipal Planning Commission and tested for compliance. This process shall be repeated until all lots in a given sample meet the standard for an individual septic system.
(d) 
Yield plan dimensional standards. The dimensional standards of the underlying zone shall be used in the development of yield plans for conservation subdivisions. These minimum area dimensions are exclusive of all wetlands, slopes greater than 25%, and land under high-tension electrical transmission lines (69kV or greater). No more than 25% of the minimum required lot area might consist of land within the 100-year floodplain, and only then if it is free of wetlands.
E. 
Subdivision options. In order to achieve these purposes, this article provides for flexibility in designing new residential subdivisions by allowing four forms of by-right development referred to as "options", as summarized below:
(1) 
Option 1: Neutral density and basic conservation permits residential uses at the density permitted by the underlying zone and reductions in lot area and dimensional standards, in exchange for a given percentage of the tract to remain in open space.
(2) 
Option 2: enhanced density with greater conservation permits a higher density of residential uses and further reductions in lot area and dimensional standards, in exchange for a larger open space percentage than Option 1.
(3) 
Option 3: estate lots permit rural residential uses using conventional subdivision design at densities lower than permitted in Option 1 with no minimum required open space.
(4) 
Combining the design options. In the AC and RA Zones, Options 1 or 2 may be combined with the neutral density option at the discretion of the Board, based upon demonstration by the applicant that such a combination would better fulfill the intent of this chapter, in particular the stated specific intent of this article, as compared with applying a single option to the property.
F. 
Density, area and bulk regulations.
(1) 
Conservation subdivisions shall meet the standards for Options 1 and 2 in the AC, RA, RS-1, and RS-2 Zones set forth in the tables below.
(a) 
The minimum lot size applies to residential uses only. Nonresidential uses shall meet the minimum requirements of the underlying zone.
(b) 
Under Options 1 and 2, the maximum number of permitted dwelling units shall be determined by either the adjusted tract area method or yield plan method.
(c) 
Open space requirements in the subdivision must include the minimum percentage of open space land as specified in the following sections. If the acreage of constrained land on the tract is greater than 35% of the total tract acreage, then the requirement for open space may be reduced by 10%.

Design standards for Option 1 and 2 subdivisions.
(1) 
Residential lots shall not encroach upon primary conservation areas as identified in Exhibit A.[3]
[3]
Editor's Note: See § 450-211H(3).
(2) 
All new dwellings shall be set back the minimum distances from the following features:
(a) 
External road ultimate right-of-way: 100 feet.
(b) 
Tract boundaries: 50 feet.
(c) 
Cropland or pasture land: 100 feet.
(d) 
Buildings or barnyards housing livestock: 300 feet.
(e) 
Active recreation areas such as courts or playing fields (not including tot-lots): 150 feet.
(3) 
Views of residential lots from exterior roads and abutting properties shall be minimized by the use of changes in topography, existing vegetation, or additional landscaping which meets the landscaping requirements of Chapter 435, Subdivision and Land Development.
(4) 
For subdivisions of five lots or more, driveways shall be accessed from interior streets, rather than from roads bordering the tract.
(5) 
The majority of the lots shall directly abut or face open space land across a street.
(6) 
In the RS-1 Zone where the requirement for open space is less than 35% of the adjusted tract acreage, a minimum of 15% of the required open space shall be in the form of greens, commons and squares.
(7) 
Standards pertaining to the quantity, quality, configuration, ownership, and maintenance of the open space land specified in this chapter and Article XII of Chapter 435, Subdivision and Land Development shall apply.
(8) 
Lots may front on a park or green, provided vehicular access to lot is provided via a lane, and provided there is no other building between the lot and the street right-of-way, and provided the lot is within 100 feet of the street right-of-way.
H. 
Discretionary density bonuses. Additional density may be allowed by the Board of Supervisors when one of the following public benefits is proposed:
(1) 
Public usage of open space land.
(a) 
The Board of Supervisors may encourage the dedication of land for public use for active and passive recreation areas according to the following standards:
[1] 
A density bonus for greater public usage of open space land in new subdivisions shall be computed on the basis of a maximum of one dwelling unit per five acres of open space land or per 2,500 feet of trail that becomes publicly accessible.
[2] 
The decision whether to accept an applicant's offer to dedicate open space land to public usage within a proposed subdivision shall be at the discretion of the Board of Supervisors, which shall be guided by the recommendations contained in the Carroll Township Recreation and Open Space Plan (when adopted), particularly those sections dealing with active recreational facilities and passive trail networks.
(2) 
Conservation land endowment. A density bonus of 10% of the maximum density, or a reduction in the minimum lot area and lot width requirements of 10%, may be granted to endow a permanent fund for offsetting continuing maintenance costs if the open space land is donated to a land trust for public use.
(a) 
Spending from the fund shall be restricted to expenditure of interest so that the principal may be preserved.
(b) 
Assuming an annual average interest rate of 5%, the amount designated for the Endowment Fund shall be at least 20 times the estimated annual maintenance costs. The estimate of annual maintenance costs shall be prepared by an agency, firm, or organization with experience in managing conservation land and recreational facilities and reviewed by the Township Engineer. If agreement on the amount cannot be reached, then the procedures for dispute resolution outlined in the MPC for cost opinions shall be followed.
(c) 
The additional dwellings in this bonus are allowed beyond the maximum permitted for the purpose of endowing the maintenance fund; therefore, a minimum of 5% of the gross selling price of the endowment lots shall be donated by the applicant to the Open Space Maintenance Endowment Fund for the open space lands of the subdivision. The developer shall transfer this fund to the designated entity with ownership and maintenance responsibilities at the time this entity is created.
(d) 
That portion of the open space to be transferred to the land trust shall be clearly delineated. The Conservation Land Endowment Fund shall only apply to the transferred land.
(3) 
Implementation. For each of the above categories of public purposes, density bonuses may be implemented by reducing the amount of required open space land by up to 10%, reducing the minimum lot area requirements by up to 10%, or by a combination of these approaches.
