Each specification is in bold with explanations following in <br />unbolded text. The unbolded text is just for you to give you context and explanation. <br />1) Lot Dimensions. Allow for 40 foot wide lots if the depth is at least 115 feet deep. (It is my understanding <br />the current PD minimum is 50' by 100'.) The 40' depth will allow for 30' wide slabs. This is what all the major <br />builders are building on almost exclusively right now. Al currently plans to build the majority on 40 foot slabs, <br />but depending on where the market goes and in case another builder ends up coming in, we need the flexibility <br />for project security for us. <br />2) Lot Dimensions. Allow for up to 15% of the lots in the 60 acres of phase one to be have a minimum of <br />50' by 801. This allows for Al's cottage product (the cottage products are wider, but not as deep as his standard <br />product, so a 100' depth would be a really deep backyard, deeper than most people that would want a cottage <br />would want to have to maintain. Therefore, the minimum lot dimensions in the 60 acre phase one would work <br />as follows: a) if a lot is 50' wide or wider, it has to be at least 100' deep, or b) if a lot is between 40' and 49' <br />wide, the minimum depth has to be 11 5'deep, and c) up to 15% of the lots in the 60 acre phase one can have a <br />50' by 80' minimum to allow for some of the cottage product. <br />3) Desi n. In front of the homes, allow for rolled curbs and sidewalks that are flush with the curbs. This <br />allows for a larger backyard for families to be able to enjoy while also providing a smaller front yard to <br />maintain. Therefore, the front yards are easier and cheaper for owners to keep maintained and looking nice and <br />they have more backyard for play sets, entertaining, and their pets. The Betenbough home I bought in Lubbock <br />was like this and I loved it. It was very nice having the smaller front yard with a bigger backyard and my wife <br />and I loved how the sidewalks were when walking our dogs. We also loved the "feel" it gives to the <br />neighborhood. I attached a picture below to provide a visual. (The sidewalks are not poured directly up to the <br />curb. There is an inch or so of special material that goes between the curb and sidewalk for expansion.) <br />
