Step 3 - Land Improvements
The next step in the process and prior to construction of your home is improving the land. Land planning is essential and presumably during the Design Services one has considered some or all of the following criteria:
- Which way should I face my front and rear doors
- How big a pad site will I need and can I use existing soil
- Which way should I turn my horses out
- How should my driveway and parking layout
- Where is my septic system to be located and will it be conventional or aerobic
- Where and how will electricity reach my home
- Where and how will my waterlines go
- Do I want automatic outdoor water for my livestock
- How about my fencing, paddocks, and turnouts be arranged
- Should I plan on underground propane
- What about hay storage
Making these decisions prior to moving any dirt is essential if one wants a low maintenance, effective horse ranch. Furthermore it will cost less to implement these choices in advance and in the proper sequence then to try to experience it as it goes.
