<br /> <br /> <br />Director Boling revealed that the current policies, which are on the books, allow for new towns <br />and do have a density bonus provision in them. <br /> <br />The Board and staff engaged in lengthy and detailed discussions regarding density bonus and <br />whether there needed to be changes in the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> <br /> <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner O’Bryan, SECONDED by <br />Chairman Wheeler, the Board, by a 4-1 vote (Commissioner <br />Davis opposed) directed staff to draft a Comprehensive Land Use <br />Plan amendment change to eliminate the allowance of <br />Village/New Towns outside of the Urban Service Area, as <br />requested in Memorandum dated November 14, 2006. <br /> <br />Commissioner O’Bryan supported the idea of transferring densities and consolidating, and <br />thought the Board could be creative and come-up with good ideas for the western lands, but the density <br />bonus worried him. <br /> <br />Chairman Wheeler was optimistic and thought the planning staff and individual groups could <br />come up with more. He believed they are moving in the right direction. <br /> <br />Commissioner Davis clarified that he did not disagree that it needs to be re-worked, he just did <br />not want to take it out of the Comprehensive Plan to do it. <br /> <br />13.B.
