A.
Purpose. Prior to the enactment of the Caln Township
Comprehensive Plan (2003), a few planned residential communities had
been previously approved under older alternative zoning regulations
such as traditional neighborhood development, planned residential
development, mixed-use development or lot averaging, which have been
terminated as viable alternatives for planned residential communities.
The purpose of the R-5 Zoning District is to recognize these planned
residential communities, which because of their preexisting condition
are allowed to continue under the basic zoning and land development
provisions, as they were applied, recognized and approved in the past.
Under this concept, the minimum and maximum dimensional requirements
of the R-5 Zoning District should be compatible to the minimum and
maximum dimensional requirements that were identified on the approved
subdivision and land development plans for the applicable planned
residential development. Where setback and coverage requirements are
not provided on the approved subdivision and land development plan,
the setback and coverage requirements in Matrix Chart 5 shall govern.[1]
