DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS The County is initiating a request to rezone approximately 122 acres located north of 16th Street (Rosewood Road), south of the main relief canal, east of 58th Avenue, and west of 43rd Avenue from RS -6, Single -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre), and A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/5 acres), to RS -3, Single -Family Residential District (up to 3 units/acre). On September 2, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners upeld the Planning and Zoning Commission's denial of a request to rezone approximately 28 acres of land located adjacent to the subject property from A-1, to RS -6. The Board did, however, rezone that property to RS -3 because they felt the RS -3 zoning was more appropriate for the area based on the RS -3 zoning on the south side of 16th Street and the low-density nature of the area. On October 23, 1986, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 -to -0 to recommend approval of this request. ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the appli- cation will be presented. The analysis will include a descrip- tion of the current and future land uses of the site and sur- rounding areas, potential impacts on the transportation and utility systems, and any significant adverse impacts on environ- mental quality. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property contains single-family residences, citrus groves and undeveloped land zoned RS -6, and a single-family residence zoned A-1. North of the subject property is a single-family subdivision on the south side of the Mair. Relief Canal zoned RS -6. Further north, across the Main Relief Canal, is a power substation, a restaurant, and a single-family house zoned CG, General Commercial District, and a ccmmercial subdivision under development and* three single-family residences zoned CL, Limited Commercial District. East of the sub;ect property is a single-family subdivision and vacant land zoned RS -6. South of the subject property, across 16th Street, is Kingswood Estates, a single-family subdivision under development, and single-family residences on large parcels of land zoned RS -3. West of the subject property is an old citrus grove being developed for single-family residences which is zoned RS -3. Future Land Use Pattern The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property and the land east, west and immediately north of it as LD -2, Low -Density- Residential 2 (up to 6 units/acre). The land further to the north, across the Main Relief Canal, is part of the 160 acre Kings Highway and State Road 60 commercial node. The land south of the subject property, across 16th Street, is designated as LD -1, Low -Density Residential 1 (up to 3 units/acre). The proposed rezoning is consistent with the RS -3 zoning located west and south of the subject property and is consistent with the low-density development pattern in this area. 19 1 BOOK 66 PAH 543
