Conservation Zone
This zone intends to preserve areas of the Township that are characterized by sensitive environmental features. These areas are not well suited to intensive development yet provide valuable passive recreation opportunities. Many steeply sloped wooded hillsides and stream valleys comprise areas within this zone. Accordingly, land developments have been severely limited so as to conserve the character and environmental quality of these settings. Finally, a cluster development conditional use has been provided for lands that have access to public sewer and water facilities. Strict controls have been placed on this cluster development to limit the overall intensity of the project and ensure the protection of sensitive environmental features to be consistent with sustainable and low-impact development guidelines and best practice measures meant to minimize negative natural resources impacts and to promote conservation.
