CMP Part 3B. LaodUtePlaa <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 fora 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 services. The location of urban residential uses depends to a <br />substantial degree on the environmental impact on Lake Minnetonka 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 nmoff pollution. <br />URBAN RESIDENTIAL • 1 DWTLLING PER ACRE <br />This Is the tspical urban residential density developed and planned for <br />areas which arc within 1,000 feet of Lake Minnetonka and which <br />have particular environmenul impact on the lake. <br />URBAN RESIDENTIAL - 2 D^^ELLINGS PER ACRE <br />This is the typical land use density of the historic development in <br />Navarre and the older residential neighborhoods. Certain other <br />residential areas are planned for this density where ^rvices 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 necessary sewer service. <br />URBAN 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 wiiere special conditions such as abutting land use, as well <br />as proximity to urban utilities and services, would make the parcel <br />appropriate for housing clusters or multi-family development.
