    100,000 square feet (2.3 acres) if a well or septic system is used.

    b.

    21,780 square feet (0.5 acre) if both public water and sewer are used.

    Maximum density in a conservation development is calculated by dividing the total developable area by the required minimum lot size.

Lots in a conservation development or rural land plan connected to public water and either a public sewer or community sewer system are not required to meet minimum lot size requirements (except for the purpose of calculating density).

    a.

    Street and road setback (Refer to section 4.9.1 setbacks from highways, county roads, and all other streets and roads.) The setback from a street or road must be 25 feet from the lot line, nearest edge of the road easement, nearest edge of right-of-way, or nearest edge of traveled way, whichever is greater.

    b.

    Side yards—Five feet.

    c.

    Rear yards—Ten feet.
