Another 100 acres have limited potential (land with slopes exceeding 10$ or requiring extensive assembly). Residential Options• Based on the preceding analysis, the following options should be considered. - Conventional Development Under this option, there would be no change to Mayfield Village's current residential zoning policy. That is, a maximum density of 1.80 housing units per acre, and provisions permitting only relatively large one family detached units would be maintained. Because of the intrinsic nature of the Village's remaining vacant land, conventional development of only the 175 acres with prime residential potential is likely in the foreseeable future. Thus, no more than 315 new homes can be expected. Since all of these homes will be built for large families, housing choices, particularly by long-time elderly and one-member households, will be limited. - Planned unit Development (PUD) Under this option, the same density as for conventional development would be maintained, but a variety in the arrangement and type of one family housing units would be allowed. Because open space would be required as an integral element, a more attractive environment could be achieved. Essentially, the PUD option would incorporate the following basic criteria. - A maximum density of 1.80 one family housing units per acre; - A maximum mix of 25$ one family cluster units; and - A minimum of 20~ of the entire development area to be set aside as common open space. 12
