TOWNSHIP 30, <br />Patrick Bruce King, I P SOUTH, RANGE 38 EAST OF <br />FLEMING GRANT FROM R=3, <br />MULTIPLE FAMILY RESI- <br />DENTIAL TO A, <br />FROM: <br />AGRICULTURE <br />cx'� <br />Art Challacombe REFERENCES: <br />Environmental Planner <br />It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal <br />consideration by the County Commission at their regular meeting on <br />March 2, 1983. y <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: <br />On January 13, 1983, the Planning and Zoning kommission recommended <br />approval of the applicant's request to rezone a 5 acre parcel located <br />north and west of the Sebastian City limits, approximately 1600± feet <br />south of the A. A. Berry Subdivision. The present zoning classifica- <br />tion is R-3, Multiple Family Residential (maximum 15 units/acre) and <br />the request is for a change to A, Agricultural (maximum of 1 unit/5 <br />acres). The Comprehensive Plan designation is MD -1 (maximum of 8 <br />units/acre). The applicant proposes to develops a nursery on the <br />property. 4, <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS: <br />Environment - The subject property is not within a flood hazard area, <br />nor does it contain environmentally sensitive areas. <br />Land Use - The applicant currently owns Lots 16, 27, and 28 which are <br />adjacent to the subject property and are currently zoned for agricul- <br />tural use, These lots contain an existing fish hatchery. To the <br />east of the subject property is vacant land within the Sebastian City <br />limits and to the north are scattered mobile homes. <br />Utilities - County water and sewer services are not presently avail- <br />able to the subject property. <br />Traffic - Existing traffic is presently accommodated by Dale Street <br />which terminates at the fish hatchery. The proposed request is a <br />less intensive use than the current zoning, thus, no negative traffic <br />impact should result from the rezoning. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Based on the foregoing analysis, staff recommends approval. <br />Attorney Calvin Brown appeared representing the <br />applicant, Charles Sembler, noting that Mr. Sembler <br />presently owns the three lots adjoining the subject <br />property, and he wishes this 5 acre lot zoned in conform - <br />ance so he can use this property for a nursery. <br />67 <br />L <br />
