DEVELOPMENT CHARACTERISTICS

Low Density Residential areas offer opportunities for low-intensity development that is well-integrated with the natural landscape and agricultural uses. Residential development may occur as individual single-family structures on large lots, or clusters of homes designed to preserve large amounts of open space, which should be interconnected as part of Shakopee’s larger open space system. Homes located within the Suburban Edge Residential District may or may not be served by municipal utilities depending on the density level of the development. Density: 0.25 up to 3 du/ac (gross); net “cluster” development densities may be higher provided they remain within the gross density range
