Mr. Schlitt felt his was a modest request and didn't understand why that one particular spot was designated at 1 upa when it is in between two areas designated at 6 upa. Planner Ron Loeper explained that part of the reason for that was the existence of Pinetree Park. In the past Pinetree Park was zoned at RS -6 and was in a land use that permitted 1 unit per 5 acres, and the decision was made to legitimize that subdivision and change the land use to reflect the actual development. In conclusion, Mr. Schlitt respectfully asked the Board to consider his requests for changes in the land use designations. Commissioner Scurlock felt the Board should just receive these comments tonight and take some time to consider these requests before the next public hearing on Wednesday, August 23, 1989, and Commissioner Bird asked staff it it was possible to prepare an overlay of this area by Wednesday. Commissioner Eggert understood that it is staff's intention over the long haul to remove the 14 upa density, but keep 10 upa, 8 upa, etc. Director Keating stated that was correct, and explained that there are some policies in the plan that allow those to be exceeded under certain conditions, such as a density transfer or certain incentives for additional densities for low-cost housing. Commissioner Eggert was not concerned about bringing it down to 8 upa along SR -60, but was worried about bringing it from 10 to 8 upa in some of the more northern areas with regard to building affordable housing. Director Keating advised that staff would recommend that it stay at 10 upa along the U.S. #1 corridor in the Gifford area but agrees that 8 upa would be more appropriate along the SR -60 corridor. The Commissions indicated that they approved of the land use designation of 8 upa along the SR -60 corridor. AUG 21 `1 9 HOF `��' Fac 6�� L
