These design options shall not apply to lot line changes for parcels in existence prior to January 2, 1999, or created by any approved subdivision plan filed with the Township prior to January 2, 1999. The reconfigured lots resulting from the lot line changes to such parcels shall comply with the area and bulk requirements set forth in Exhibit F to this chapter.; Tier I subdivisions: relatively low density, providing for rural residential uses with flexible and reduced design standards in instances where a permanent conservation easement is offered to maintain such uses.
