Approximately 5,000 sq ft. front-loaded lots, cars would approach these lots from the front and the homes would have front loading garages. o 77 alley-loaded cottage lots which range in size from 3200 - 4000 sq. ft. o 38 alley-loaded townhomes which are mixed in somewhat through the community. o The townhomes could be replaced with a mansion apartment; a building which appears to be one very large ornate single-family home but actually houses 4 - 6 apartments. e The properry currently contains a homestead with historical significance. There are associated farm buildings, fields, a family cemetery and about 22 acres of woodlands. Less than2 acres of these woodlands are slated to be cleared from the site. o Town standard streets, neighborhood greens serving as community space and pocket parks are to be included. o Multiple price points will be offered. . The main entrance is off of Banjo Lane, a road connection is suggested through the Ashley Family Limited Partnership's other properties to make a connection to Little Hut Drive and to Railroad Avenue. o Mr. Ashley stated the Turpin's family cemetery will be protected and he would like to see the Women's Museum in the house and would like to donate it to that organization or the Town. o Mr. Griffith added the farmhouse center green will either be community open space or a Town owned park. A dedicated town dedicated park would give more public access as opposed to just community access. o The lot sizes and widths as shown do not comply with the R-3 requirements. This development may need to be processed as a Planned Unit Development (PUD). o For a project like this there would have to be a Home Owners Association (HOA). Covenants and the responsibility for maintenance of the common areas would fall to the HOA. Page I of2 Unfinished Business a.
