were lawful uses when the Comp Plan was adopted. Those were added to the List of Exceptions after the last Public Hearing of March 28, 1985 and are incorporated in the proposed Ordinance. Commissioner Bird asked if we had to amend the Comp Plan to allow us to exceed the maximum allowable densities on those two parcels, and Mr. Shearer advised that we did not as those were pre-existing conditions and were lawfully conforming uses when the plan was adopted in 1982. Mr. DeJoia also inquired whether the remaining portion of a L-shaped parcel of land in the A.A. Berry Subdivision in Roseland would be rezoned to 4 units per acre. Mr. Shearer explained that the property to which Mr. DeJoia Is referring is adjacent to property Mr. DeJoia owns. His property is R -2A, which will be converted to the RM -4 land use designation. There is some R-3 zoned property around Mr. DeJoia's property and, generally, the conversion table would convert that to RM -6, based on the R3 zoning and the LD -1 land use designation. However, this is something that staff did not look at specifically when they set up the tables and no provision was made for an exception. It is an area that would become RM -6 if the Ordinance is adopted tonight. If the Board feels that it should be RM -4, staff will initiate a County rezoning. The area around it is primarily LD -1 on three sides and MD -1 further to the South. Mr. DeJoia noted that they were using that as a buffer zone between single family and felt that 6 units per acre would be too high in that area. The Commissioners agreed that they did not want the densities to be any higher than necessary in that area. Mr. Shearer recommended that the proposed Ordinance be adopted this evening and that staff be instructed to do an immediate County initiated rezoning to 4 units per acre on the remaining portion of the L-shaped property in Roseland. The Commissioners agreed. rJ APR 111985 BOOK 60 PAGE 563
