Mountain House Specific Plan III ........................................................................................................................................................................ A variety of housing types,densities and lot sizes will be provided within the planning area to accommodate a diversity of family incomes and lifestyle conditions. Lotting patterns include standard front driveway lots, corner side driveway lots, cluster lots with common driveway access(courtyards/auto courts),alley lots with garage access to the rear,and lots with common open spaces or green courts with rear alleys. Two multi-family residential areas,one in the southeastern area of Neighborhood A/B and the other in Neighborhood D along the open space corridor will provide higher density housing opportunities emphasizing pedestrian access and connections. The general density of proposed residential areas of Specific Plan III would be slightly higher than the Mountain House neighborhoods to the north and would provide a relatively more affordable neighborhood context. The Community Park which is located to the southwest on Central Parkway across from the Community i College balances the location of the Neighborhood Center within Neighborhood A/B such that most homes are within easy walking or bicycling distance to a park. All parks within Neighborhood A/B are also on the open space trail corridors. The Community Park's location across from the Community College also allows for convenient joint use of recreation facilities. 6' A mix of public and private uses to serve the daily needs of people in the neighborhood is encouraged within the commercial portion of the Neighborhood Center. A variety of retail uses and community facilities such as a day care center,recreation building,or meeting hall are allowed. Outdoor dining areas, pedestrian plazas,and sitting areas are encouraged in the neighborhood commercial site to emphasize its place as a social center of the neighborhood. The Industrial Park areas on the southern and eastern boundaries of the community are intended to accommodate modern business park developments suitable for location along major community roadways and near residential neighborhoods. The industrial and office uses will be incorporated into campus-like settings,with common treatment of open space, amenities,circulation or other common elements. The office and industrial uses will reflect a similarity of design. Industrial and office sites will also be r designed to facilitate easy vehicular, transit,bicycle and pedestrian connections. L.
