VI. GENERAL GOALS AND POLICIES The following page outlines goals and policies of Bunker Hill Township. Goals are the general statements that define the direction and character of future development. Policies set forth the framework for action and form the basis upon which more detailed development decisions are made. Adoption of policies does not commit the Township to any particular recommendation, but does commit it to take actions that are consistent with the policy guidelines. The following statements reflect the primary goals of the Township, as stated in the most general terms: Goal: Maintain the abundance and quality of natural resources and agricultural land within the Township, and acknowledge the resulting limitations to development. Goal: Retain the unique rural residential character and the desirability of the Township as a place to live, work, and play, maintaining and promoting the abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. Goal: Consider the Township's position in Ingham County and near Jackson County and recognize that certain intensive land uses may be more suitably located in areas outside the Township with available infrastructure and support services. Goal: Allow for a range of housing choices within the limitations in the community. Maintain primarily low-density residential communities due to natural features, limiting soil conditions for on-site septic systems, lack of sewer and water and other urban services, and the capacity of the existing road network. Goal: Allow only those commercial activities, which are compatible with the existing conditions within the Township and in cooperation with surrounding communities. Goal: Develop and promote a positive and identifiable community image for Bunker Hill Township. Bunker Hill Township - 46 - Master Plan
