Conservation Development

conservation development

By Design Your Town

Rather than building dozens of single-family homes spread across a property (as current zoning requires), the same number of homes would be allowed to be closer together or be taller, allowing green space to be aggregated and preserved.

Conservation development can preserve permeable land for groundwater recharge, ecosystem protection, stormwater drainage, and animal migration, among other benefits.

Would you be supportive of concentrating development if it meant preserving open space?
