*4. Proposed Amendment to Chapter 273, Zoning Code, Regarding Open Space Subdivisions
Create a new “Article XXVII Open Space Subdivisions” to allow Open Space Subdivisions by Special Permit in Residential Zones. Open Space Subdivisions are a more flexible method for the development of land which preserve substantial areas of open space and protect important natural and historic resources. Open Space Subdivisions are permitted in R-5, R-6, R-7, and R-8 Zones. In Open Space Subdivisions, area and bulk standards are relaxed in exchange for the granting of more open space.
*5. Proposed Amendments to Chapter 272 Subdivision of Land, Regarding Open Space
Delete 272-21 “Open Space Subdivisions”
Delete 272-41 and Replace with a new 272-41 “Parks recreation areas, open spaces and Town land”. The new section has the following important changes;
· Increases the required open space dedication to 15%.
· Requires that the open space dedicated be proportionate to the property as a whole with respect to wetlands, and steep slopes.
· Establishes a Fee in Lieu of Land provision as an alternative to the dedication of open space land.
