Staff Recommendation
DENY the requested LDR (Low Density Residential), SLPA (Slope Protection), and STPA (Stream Protection) sector plan designation.
Reasonable residential development may be permitted under the current agricultural sector plan designation, which allows consideration of PR zoning at a density of 1 du/ac or less. The steep slopes and floodway characteristics of the site make it unsuitable for a density of greater than 1 du/ac, therefore the sector plan amendment is not necessary. The requested PR zoning will allow the residential units to be clustered into the more developable portions of the site, in order to protect the floodway and the steep slopes.
