Staff Recommendation
RECOMMEND that County Commission APPROVE PR (Planned Residential) zoning at a density of up to 2 du/ac. (Applicant requested up to 5 du/ac.)
PR zoning at the recommended density is consistent with the sector plan recommendation and the Growth Policy Plan and is compatible with surrounding development and zoning. Under PR zoning, a development plan would be have to be reviewed and approved by MPC as a use on review and concept plan. The requested density of up to 5 du/ac is not consistent with the policies of the Growth Policy Plan. The recommended density of up to 2 du/ac is also more compatible with the scale of the majority of residential development in the area.
Disposition Summary
