Albertville's
New Smdll Town Neighborhood
I .
GENERAL
LOT
PLANNING
GUIDES
Careful siting of each home should seek to fit the topography, blend with significant existing vegeta-
tion, views, open space and other features that define the character of this neighborhood. These guide-
lines will further this goal by establishing criteria aimed at achieving quality levels of landscape archi-
tecture and sensitive site plans. Our goal is beautiful streetscapes and open spaces, interesting and com-
plementary lot amenity features, paving and planting design. Careful consideration must be made for
future additions: decks, fences,. and screened porches. Consultation with an experienced landscape
design consultant is recommended at the early stages of home and site planning.
SUMMARY
Design for the
unique aspects
of your home-
site and the
neighborhood.
Refer to spe-
cific tree foca-
tions and ele-
vations and
try to provide
a balance
between home
position, Ufoot
print" and
preservation
of significant
trees.

2. Respect the existing topography and
work with it. Adapt it with natural forms
and retaining that continues the lines of the
home.
3. ARC may require maintenance of sight
lines of other homes to natural or built
amenities.
2. Preserve undergrowth in protected forest
areas. Pathways are appropriate.
3. For Concept ARC Review Plan submittal,
show the location, size species, and elevation
of existing trees greater than 8 inches in
diameter and oaks, hickory and sugar maple
greater than 2 inches in diameter within the
proposed area to be disturbed and within 20
feet thereof.

DETAIL
C. LOT-HOME POSmON GUIDE
. 1. Respond to ARC garage and home posi-
tion from ARC-provided Lot Planning
Guide.
2. On vertical curb streets, utilize existing
curb cut or pay for new curbcut location
and street restoration/ repair.
3. Homes should be positioned with in
respect to existing homes and in anticipa-
tion of siting of future homes. (See: The
A.R.c. Lot/Home Location Guide.)
D. HOUSE-DOMINANT HOME DESIGNS
1. Design homes with "tamed garages",
emphasizing a home's elevations, to build-
ing massing and architectural detailing,
including a recognizable style, or dominant
or tasteful blend.
E. TOWNE LAKES'S REDUCED SET-
BACKS
1. 20' setback from property line (15'
from back of most sidewalks)
allows / motivates use of deeper floor
plans (see Gty requirements).
1. With reduced lot widths and budget con-
scious home design, house-dominant
designs require creative two and three car
garage positioning to screen, diminish
impact from road, while emphasizing home
entry and approach.
2. Provide not less than two car or more
than four spaces without ARC approval.
3. Garage positioning that emphasizes
house and minimizes garage can include:
. 3 car L-shaped garages with tandem
spaces, turned garages at side streets, side
load garages and limited use courtyard of
garages (where lot width permits).
4. On lookout or walkout lots, emphasize
oversized garages (with two 1 car doors or
one 2 car door) to provide greater design
freedom yet meet homeowner's need for
greater storage.

ably with steps near the street right-of-
way line/back of sidewalk (except lots
with unusually long drives or steep
topography.
3. PAVED AREA
a. Homes without a front porch must
have a paved surface of at least 100
s.L A deciduous overstory or understo-
ry tree, minimum 3" caliper must pro
vide shade for the area. Creative/ multi-
use of paved surfaces is encouraged.

GENERAL
HOME
DESIGN
GUIDES
Provide each individual home its own identity and character. Homes must be aesthetically balanced,
with details consistent with the selected architectural style, and built with quality materials and work-
manship. Homes not demonstrating adequate design variety will not be approved by ARC.
SUMMARY
EXAMPLE
Trellis/arbor/pergola as garage
camouflage.
DETAIL
A. VISUAL IMPACTS
1. Create attractive off-lot visual impacts.
Be mindful of the home's massing as seen
from surrounding road approaches and
when viewed with other adjacent and sur-
round homes. Avoid unaccented 2 & 3
story facades.
2. Respond to each lot's on and off- site
opportunities to help define the views, the
home's outdoor spaces and guide posi-
tions of home interior spaces
3. Select home design/ floor plans that
establish a friendly relationship with the
street via porches, decks, gradual level
changes and anteways, entry sitting areas,
courtyards, patios, terraces, sheltered
entrys, etc.
4. Price efficiency can come with simpler,
lower room-count, "box-on-box" floor
plans, blended with modem, shared-space
room layouts.
5. "Stage front" appearance will not be
approved. The home's sides and rear
should support the style of the home's
front elevations, with similar trim, detail-
ing & sidings.
6. Camouflage garages with small set-
backs from home front, with porch exten-
sions, arbors, trellises, wing walls or
retaining walls. Hide garbage & recycle
bins through design.
7. Add steps from garage to home, pro-
vide headroom at garage service door.
Allow space for added risers in garage
and! or transition rooms within home,
such as laundry! mudroom. Design
should reduce impact of blank area above
garage door(s) (ie. lowered roof line,
trim! details.)
Page 6
SUMMARY
Provide main
floor elevation
that is raised
2 1/2 to 3 feet
above the
street eleva-
tion. 5 to 7 ris-
ers typical.
EXAMPLE
With reduced front setbacks (that
encourage neighboring), raise
home to protect privacy.
DETAIL
B. HOME TO BACK OF CURB
ELEVATION
1. Raise home, with added front steps
to capture an old traditional look par-
ticularly with reduced setbacks... can
turn on-grade homes to look-outs,
look-outs to walkouts.
C. ROOF PITCHES
1. The roof on each home is one of the
most important visual masses on the
house. Roof slopes and overhangs must
be appropriate to the selected individual
style: Research your style, know its con-
ventions.
2. Design and refine well thought out,
simple and strong roof forms. Increased
roof pitches are generally preferred (except
for some bungalow and prairie styles.)
D. HARDSCAPE
TERRACES/pORCHES/OUIDOOR
UVING SPACE
1. Outdoor living spaces can provide effec-
tive transition between home, outdoors,
and a place of interaction with neighbors.
These could include patios, decks, gar-
dens, terraces, seating areas. If a porch or
terrace is prepared shown and labeled, it
should be of sufficient size to allow seat-
ing for 2, minimum. Sheltered entries
(without seating areas are acceptable) but
then a terrace or other hard. surface seating
area at the front of the home must be pro-
vided.

neighboring lots and light sources must be
shielded to prevent glare. Wall washes can
be achieved through an eave or ground
mounted light fixture. Avoid soffit-mount-
ed spot lights. ARC may allow such spots
only in areas not visible to street or from
other lots.

DETAIL
4. Tree uplights should be recessed below
ground, behind shrub masses or down
lights should be positioned within the
trees, out of primary view.
5. Integrate landscape lighting with deck.

3. Associated code-required security
fences, retaining walls, and lighting should
meet requirements described.
T. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
1. During construction each homesite will
be kept clean and free of debris. Each
builder will be held responsible for debris
which blows off the site, so police your
site. If the developer must clean up the
appropriate charges will be passed on.
