BOOK 68 PAGE 26 approximately 600 feet deep located on the north side of 69th Street and east of the Lateral "G" Canal was redesignated from LD -2 to LD -1, Low -Density Residential 1 (up to 3 unitcia...--% ,. February 17, 1987 by the Board of County Commissioners. The land located to the west of the subject property is designated as PARK. The land located to the north and northeast of the subject property is designated as PARK and LD -2. (Please refer to the attached map showing the area redesignated by the Board of County Commissioners on February 17, 1987). The Winter Beach Small Area Plan and Precise Land Use Map desig- nates the subject property as single-family residential with a maximum density of 6 units/acre. (Please refer to the attached Precise Land Use Map for Winter Beach). Transportation System The subject property has frontage on 69th Street (N. Winter Beach Road) which is classified as a primary collector on the Thorough- fare Plan. The maximum development of the subject property under RM -6 zoning could generate up to 915 average annual daily trips (AADT). 69th Street is presently rated at Level -of -Service "A". The additional traffic which could be generated under the pro- posed RM -6 zoning would not diminish this level -of -service. Environment The subject property is located immediately west of the Coastal Sand Ridge Primary Aquifer Recharge Area but it is characterized by poorly drained soils. TTi- i l i f- i a c The subject property is not currently served by County water or wastewater facilities. However, County water is scheduled to be supplied to the area between 1988 and 1992. It should be empha- sized that a maximum density of 2 units/acre can be realized without either public water or sewer facilities. RECOMMENDATION The subject property is surrounded on two (2) sides by single- family residential zoning and existing single-family residences. The Winter Beach Precise Land Use Map also designates this property as single-family residential and establishes a low- density policy for residential development in this area of Winter Beach. Based on these facts, the staff recommends that the request to rezone the subject property be denied. Richard Shearer, Chief of Long -Range Planning, explained that this rezoning application is also independent of any Comp Plan application and the Board can take action today. Staff is recommending denial of this request in this particular area north of South Winter Beach Road east of Kings Highway and west of the Lateral Canal. In this 21 -acre area, this property and one other are zoned RS -6; everything else is zoned RS -3. 26
