Town of Cary, North Carolina - Land Development Ordinance Intro   
8.3  Alternative Development Option: Cluster Housing Previous   
8.3.2  Applicability Next   
8.3  Alternative Development Option: Cluster Housing Up   

8.3.1  Purpose

This section provides an optional process and standards for cluster housing development.  The section is intended to allow for new concepts of traditional single-family housing development so that variations of design may be allowed, provided that the net residential density shall be no greater than permitted in the district in which the development is proposed.  This shall not be construed as granting variances to relieve hardship. The intent is to develop less land area while allowing the same number of housing units that would be permitted under a conventional subdivision.  This, in turn, provides the Town with a means of permanently protecting open space, rural character, and important environmental resources such as those identified in the Open Space and Historic Resources Plan.
