the commission to understand, as part of the PUD there are three out lots in the southwest corner that are Crafton residential out lots. The Crafton family is retaining those lots and will be building single -family homes on them. They were originally going to do a minor plat, but since they were doing the PUD, they will incorporate them in the PUD. Then they will come in with a secondary plat just for those three lots later. Of those three lots, lots one and two will have access to Hadley Road and lots two and three will be accessed from the Boulevard that will be constructed. The house on lot one already has a drive that comes out on Hadley Road. The 62.8 acres of the development do not include the approximate 10 acres for the three lots. The Villages at Eastmoore total project will consist of approximately 72 to 73 acres. The total common area in parks of 8.7 acres, that is divided between the lake area, landscape sign and buffer areas on the north and south and the round about circle park area. Then there are a couple of other little parks up in the Cambridge Village area. There are also two business lots which joins to what Mr. Hopkins has zones commercial lots, these lots will be approximately two acres. The total density of the 62.8 acres, excluding the Crafton's ten acres, comes out to 2.3 lots per acre. This is pretty low density, right on par with what would be about 15,000 to 16,000 square foot lot if you were to plat the entire thing. The current zoning is agriculture, proposed zoning is E, which is mixed use, and that is because they have business lots up in the northwest corner. They will propose annexation to the Town of Mooresville and they will be requesting voluntary annexation. There are two distinct types of development that would make up the villages. The first one is the Village of Princeton on the west side, the actual name may change, but the requirements for development standards will not, there will still be two distinct villages. For the time being the Village of Princeton will be on the west and south side of the development and the Cambridge Villages are on the east side. This was done, because Crafton Meadows and Ka rington Estates already border on the east side and made it no sense to put the larger lots and bigger homes next to the existing development. The lots in Princeton are typically 90'X150', you might see some that are 85'X145' or some that are 100'X150', but typically they are 13,500 sq. ft. The minimum living area is 1800 sq. ft. for one story and 2400 sq. ft. for two story homes. They will all have attached garages, that will be in the rear of the and will be access by a drive that runs along the side of the house, there will be no garages facing the street. The houses are traditional ranch or colonial style, that is the reason for the wide lots. The Cambridge Villages, which is the east portion, will more or less next to Crafton and Karrington, there will be 77 lots. The lots are typically 64'X120', the minimum living area will be 1400 sq. ft. for one story and 1800 sq. ft. for two story homes. There will be three car-attached garage at the rear of the house, which will be accessed alleys at the rear of the homes. The homes will be of the village cottage style and each home must have a freestanding yard light at the rear. The following standards will apply to entire development, both Princeton and Cambridge. The exteriors will be brick, stone, wood or hardiplank or a combination of these materials and all homes will be on a crawl space or basement, not concrete slabs. All homes will have a concrete drive, a roof pitch of 8/12 or greater and must be landscaped with trees and shrubs from species of plants approved by the developer. The following standards will apply to the entire community of Eastmoore. All owners except Crafton out lots will be members on the Village Homeowners Association which will be responsible for the maintenance of the common areas and common infrastructure including, but no limited to entrance signs, landscaping, lake, parks, streetlights and alleys. The alleys will not be dedicated and they are not asking for the town to do any maintenance on the alleys. Covenants and restrictions will be developed for the community to integrity, continuity and style of the villages are maintained. The following utilities will be
