CMP Partaa Und Use Pbo <br />CUy ofOroMO <br />URBAN LAND USE <br />Urban Residential Land Use <br />Urban residential development will retain the basic single family character <br />of the community but will also provide for a wider range of housing types at <br />generally low densities consistent with available services, the natural <br />amenities of the land, and environmental protection. Planning devices such <br />as clustering will permit a limited amount of multiple dwellings such as patio <br />homes, townhouses and garden apartments to be located near commercial <br />areas within the overall planned density of the neighborhood. <br />Urban residential development requires municipal sanitary sewer, an <br />adequate transportation system, neighborhood recreational facilities and other <br />typical urban serv ices. The location of urban residential uses depends to a <br />substantial degree on the environmental impact on Lake Minnetoi^a and the <br />protection of the natural wetlands system for storm water filtration and <br />purification. <br />All urban residential land within 1,000 feet of Lake Minnetonka will require <br />special environmental restrictions and lower land use densities in order to <br />assure shoreline protection and minimal direct storm water runoff pollution. <br />URBAN RESIDENTIAL - 1 DWTLLfSG PER ACRE <br />This is the typical urban residential densitv* developed and planned for <br />areas which are within 1,000 feet of Lake Minnetonka and which <br />have particular environmental impact on the lake. <br />URB.AN RESIDENTIAI . 2 DWELLINGS PER ACRE <br />This is the typical land use density of the historic development in <br />Navane and the older residential neighborhoods. Certain other <br />residential areas are planned for this density where services are <br />available beyond 1,000 feet from the lakeshore. Municipal water is <br />generally provided to these districts for supply and fire protection, in <br />addition to the necessarv sewer service. <br />URB AN RESIDENTIAL - 2 to 6 DWELLINGS PER ACRE <br />These densities are provided for along Highway 12 as shown on the <br />Land Use Plan. Development at these densities will be limited to <br />properties where special conditions such as abutting land use, as well <br />as proximity to urban utihties and services, would make the parcel <br />appropriate for housing clusters or multi-fanuly development.
