Assuming that all 175 acres of remaining vacant land in Mayfield Village were developed according to these criteria, the same number of housing units as under the conventional development option (315) would be built; but up to 80 of these units might be one family cluster units; and at least 35 acres of common open space would be preserved. As already noted, utilization of the Village's existing 100 acres of vacant land with only limited residential development potential is unlikely under conventional zoning requirements. On the other hand, the PUD option might encourage the eventual assembly and development of such land. Assuming that this were the case, an additional 180 one family units, including up to 45 one family cluster units in concert with at least 20 acres of common open space, would be developed. Again, such development would address the community's expanding elderly and one member household needs more adequately than the conventional development option alone. Other residential options for higher densities and additional apartments were weighed against Mayfield Village's existing characteristics. However, it was concluded that such options would be inappropriate because of their possible injurious affect upon the Village's maturing residential environment.

Existing business development Wilson Mills/SOM Center Roads in Plan Less than five acres of zoned business ~upied by non-business uses. Some 420,000 square feet of business floor area in 23 main buildings exist in the Village. The percent of business land occupied by floor area, or land coverage, ranges between 17.4$ in Plan Area 3-and 25.2$ in Plan Area 5. According to the 1987 U.S. Census of Business, Mayfield Village ranked 235th among Ohio's 278 communities with over 2,500 residents in retail sales. Current retail sales are estimated at $34.0 million. Thus, with 150,000 square feet of retail floor area, the ratio of sales per square foot is $225. This ratio, and the fact that up to $45.0 million of sales could be captured in the Village based on its 1990 per capital income of $23,835, implies a very strong retail business potential. A similar potential for business services is shown in 1987-91 Annual Office Market Surveys by Victor S. Voinovich. 13
