In conformance with the Municipalities Planning Code, particularly Section 604, Zoning Purposes, subsections 1, 3 and 5 and Section 605, Classifications, subsections 2 and 3, the purposes of this article, among others, are as follows: To provide for a diversity of lot sizes, building densities and housing choices to accommodate a variety of age and income groups and residential preferences, so that the community's population diversity may be maintained; To implement adopted Township land use, transportation and community policies, as identified in the Township's Comprehensive Plan; To implement adopted Township policies to conserve a variety of irreplaceable and environmentally sensitive resource lands as set forth in the West Vincent Township Open Space and Recreation Plan, including provisions for reasonable incentives to create a greenway system for the benefit of present and future residents; and To provide standards reflecting the varying circumstances and interests of individual landowners and the individual characteristics of their properties.; In order to achieve these purposes, this article provides for flexibility in designing new residential subdivisions by allowing five optional forms of development from which the landowner shall be required to select one or, if permitted by the Township, more than one, referred to as tiers, as summarized below. 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.
