Future Land Use Pattern The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as LD -2, Low -Density Residential 2 (up to 6 units/acre). All of the land around the subject property is also designated LD -2 except for the area to the west. Some of the land west of the subject property can be included in the Hobart Road/U.S. Highway 1 commercial/ industrial node. The land on the west side of U.S. Highway 1 is in the U.S. Highway 1 MXD, Mixed -Use District, Corridor (up to 6 units/acre). The R-3, Multiple Dwelling District, zoning of the subject property (allowing up to 15 uni`.s/acre) does not conform to the LD -2 land use designation of this area. The R-3 densities were grandfathered in because the site plan was approved before the Comprehensive Plan was adopted. However, the proposed R -2D zoning does conform to the LD -2 land use designation and will provide a .good transition between the commercially -zoned land west of the subject property along U.S. Highway 1 and the single-family subdivision east of the subject property. Roads/Traffic The proposed down -zoning of the subject property would result in considerably less traffic generated on this site. The R-3 zoning could generate up to 1864 average daily trips (ADT). The R -2D zoning would allow a maximum of 746 ADT. , Environment The subject property is not designated as environmentally sensitive. However, the majority of the subject property is in a floodplain zone A9 (elevation 6). The zone A9 designation is for areas subject to 100 -year floods. The remainder of the subject property is in a zone B floodplain area which includes land within the limits of 100 year flood and 500 year flood. ri+-; 1 ; t-; Ac The subject property is not currently served by County water nor wastewater facilities. RECOMMENDATION Based on the above analysis, including the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation, staff recommends approval. Richard Shearer, Principal Planner, presented staff's recommendation that the County initiate rezoning o.f Indian Lakes Condos from R-3, Multiple Dwelling District, allowing up to 15 units per acre, to R -2D, Multiple Family District, which allows a maximum of 6 units per acre. This rezoning would bring the zoning into conformance with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation for this property, which is LD -2 maximum of 6 units per acre.
