CMP Part 3B. General Land Use Plan <br /> Map 3B-3 indicates the proposed land use plan of the city, identifying appropriate land uses and densities <br /> for each individual neighborhood. This land use map will form the basis for land use and zoning decisions <br /> over the next 20 years. Table 3B-3 is a summary of Orono's Planned Land Use. Note that the Summary <br /> reflects that the planned uses are to be allowed to take effect immediately rather than being staged over a <br /> period of years,thus the 2030 and 2040 predicted acreages are the same as 2020 levels. <br /> Ta6i83S-� �aronn�'lanil��� � nd Sea`r � �'(Amendms 1-4 <br /> Land Use Category 2020 Acreage %of City 2030 Acreage %of City 2040 Acreage %of City <br /> Rural Preserve(1 unit/5 acres) 1207 8.39% 1207 8.39% 1207 8.39% <br /> Rural Residential(1 unit/2 acres) 2808 19.52% 2808 19.52% 2808 19.52% <br /> Island Residential 55 0.38% 55 0.38% 55 0.38% <br /> (JrbanLarge Lo`tEstate(0.125 0 5 uni sd;ac?e)""" _ • .. _ .`0:40% , w-°" 58."• <br /> Urban Estate Density Residential(0.5-2 units/acre) 3177 22.08% 3177 22.08% 3177 22.08% <br /> Urban Low Density Residential(3-8 units/acre) 165 1.15% 165 1.15% 165 1.15% <br /> Urban Med Residential/Mixed Use(8-15 units/acre) 86 0.60% 86 0.60% 86 0.60% <br /> Urban Medium High Density Residential(15-20 units per acre) 3 0.02% 3 0.02% 3 0.02% <br /> Urban High Density Residential(20-25 units per acre) 51 0.35% 51 0.35% 51 0.35% <br /> Commercial/Office 46 0.32% 46 0.32% 46 0.32% <br /> Industrial 42 0.29% 42 0.29% 42 0.29% <br /> Park,Recreational and Open Space 1570 10.91% 1570 10.91% 1570 10.91% <br /> TOM () G°I 9x $ fx, 9,268 t t¢°/✓„ <br /> Percentages based on total city area,including 6014 acres of open water and Highway rights of way <br /> Source Proposed Land Use Map <br /> The Plan does not suggest a change in land use over the next 20 years, after the adoption of this Update. <br /> The land uses identified in Map3B-3a and Map 3B-3b are outlined in greater detail below. <br /> 1. Lakes and Open Water <br /> Areas within the city boundary of open water. The Lakes and associated watersheds are a significant <br /> influence on the quality of life and character of the City. However, since they are not a land use,they <br /> are not included in the land use calculations for the city. Open water constitutes approximately 34% <br /> of the surface area of the City. <br /> 2. Rural Preserve (1 unit per 5 acres) <br /> The northwest corner of the City is planned for a lower density of one unit per five acres. This area <br /> has been developed to provide large lot and quasi agricultural home sites. The extension of municipal <br /> water or sewer is not intended for these areas. Residential dwelling units will be provided as single <br /> family detached structures. <br /> 3. Rural Residential(1 unit per 2 acres) <br /> This is the typical rural residential density developed and planned to be permanently self-supporting. <br /> No rural density will be allowed greater than one unit per two acres except for those residences in <br /> existing rural housing clusters that were originally developed many decades ago and in most cases <br /> have been provided with municipal sewer within the past 3 decades. New rural developments may <br /> include housing clustering when environmental and site conditions allow,provided the overall density <br /> within the development conforms to these requirements, and provided that all sewage treatment needs <br /> can be adequately met within. Residential dwelling units will be provided as single family detached <br /> City of Orono Community Management Plan 2020-2040 Part 3B,Page 14 <br />
