On November 21, 1985, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted <br />4 -to -0 to recommend approval of boundaries for this node which <br />would have followed the boundaries of the existing CL zoning in <br />this area. On December 18, 1985, the Board of County <br />Commissioners tabled action on setting boundaries for this node <br />pending further staff analysis. <br />After analyzing potential boundaries for this node and reviewing <br />the proposed enlargement of the node and rezoning of the subject.. <br />property, staff has compiled the following findings: <br />1. The current commercial node allows for up to 50 acres <br />of commercial land)and there are 50 acres of land <br />distributed around the intersection zoned commercial; <br />2. There is only one commercial use in this area being a <br />convenience store occupying approximately one acre of <br />land; <br />3. There has been no commercial development in this area <br />since the Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1982; <br />4. The subject property is situated between a school and a <br />cemetary which is not an appropriate place for <br />commercial development. <br />Based on these findings, particularly the amount of existing <br />commercial development and the lack of commercial development <br />since the Comprehensive Plan was adopted, there does not appear <br />to be sufficient grounds to enlarge the node. In order to rezone <br />the subject property to CG, either the node will have to be <br />enlarged or the subject property must be considered within the <br />node which would require that 34 acres of land zoned CL in this <br />area be deleted from the node and rezoned to a residential or <br />agricultural zoning district. <br />Transportation System <br />The subject property has direct access to County Road 512 <br />(classified as an arterial street on the county's Thoroughfare. <br />Plan). The maximum development of the subject property under CG <br />zoning could generate up to 15,836 average annual daily trips. <br />Environment <br />The subject property is not <br />sensitive nor is it in a <br />characteristics for the subject <br />and poor drainage. <br />Utilities <br />designated as environmentally <br />flood -prone area. The soil <br />property include severe wetness <br />County water and wastewater facilities are not available for the <br />subject property. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Based on the above analysis, including the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission's recommendation,- staff recommends that this <br />Comprehensive Plan amendment request be denied. Based on this <br />recommendation and the staff's previous recommendation for the <br />boundaries for this node which would not include the subject <br />property, staff recommends that this rezoning request be denied. <br />W <br />BOOK 65 ;,� E 3.3 <br />
