This section is intended to encourage residential subdivision developments that cluster homes to preserve open space for recreational and environmental reasons.

c)

Decrease or minimize nonpoint source pollution impacts by reducing the amount of impervious surfaces in site development;

d)

Promote cost savings in infrastructure installation and maintenance by such techniques as reducing the distance over which utilities, such as water and sewer lines, need to be extended or by reducing the length of streets;
