ADOPT RESOLUTION #7-C-17-SP, amending the Southwest County Sector Plan to MDR (Medium Density Residential) and recommend that County Commission also approve the sector plan amendment, to make it operative. (See resolution, Exhibit A.)

Staff Recommendation

DENY MDR (Medium Density Residential) sector plan designation.

---

Approval of medium density residential uses for this site would be a spot plan amendment in an area surrounded by low density residential uses. With the exception of Edgewater Subdivision at about 6 du/ac, all of the properties in the immediate area that have access to Canton Hollow Rd. have a developed density of less than 5 du/ac. When taken as a whole, the density in the surrounding area averages far less than 5 du/ac, which is the maximum density allowed under the LDR plan designation. The current LDR designation is appropriate for this property and should remain in place. The current sector plan proposes LDR all along Canton Hollow Rd. from Kingston Pike south to the lake.
