Expcrsion <br />of the sewer system into the Rural Service Area will not result in the <br />provision of additional urban services, nor will it result in changes to allowed <br />development densities. <br />Additional urban development will occur only in the designated Urban <br />Service Area. Additional urban development will occur in the urbanized <br />areas consistent with the capacities of the existing urban services and at <br />limited densities consistent with all environmental constraints. <br />Expansion of the MUSA to allow sewering of existing neighborhoods or <br />developing lakeshore properties within the Rural Service Area, is QSi an <br />expansion of the Urban Service Area. <br />Provision of municipal sewer to existing neighborhoods or developing <br />lakeshore properties within the Rural Service Area will not result in new <br />development or redevelopment at densities inconsistent with Rural <br />Service Area standards. Provision of municipal sewer to properties in the <br />Rural Service Area will qqL result in the rezoning of properties or <br />neighborhoods to allow urban density development. <br />Additional rural development will occur in the designated Rural Service <br />Area. Additional rural residential and quasi-agricultural development can <br />occur in the rural areas without taxing the limited capacities of existing rural <br />services. Rural development will occur at limited densities consistent with <br />self-supporting on-site sewer and water services and with maintenance of <br />natural amenities, open space and other rural community characteristics. <br />Natural features and sensitive environments will be protected by <br />ordinances based upon extensive inventory, analysis and established <br />environmental protection guidelines. Natural resource information will be <br />used and evaluated in review of ail land use developments. Ordinance <br />provisions will be reasonably established, fairly interpreted and strictly <br />enforced. <br />Historically significant buildings, places and settings will be identified <br />and preserved. The character of Orono receives much of its identity from <br />our unique historic developments. Programs will be established to identify <br />and help preserve this heritage for future generations. Where necessary, <br />special consideration will be made to encourage retention of significant public <br />or private amenities.
