®ocK 95 FAcF 921 The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in this matter. Chuck McKinnon, Attorney, appeared on behalf of Mr. Angell and advised that Mr. Angell owns the property immediately to the northwest corner of the subject parcel. Mr. Angell's property was chosen carefully because of the zoning and he is now very concerned that homes will be allowed on one-half acre lots. The proposed use will drastically affect the use and enjoyment of Mr. Angell's property, as well as other surrounding properties, and he does not believe the proposed use is consistent with the County's Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Angell believed that the developer's only reason for requesting this special exception is to make more money by having more units per acre and asked the Board to vote against the proposed exception. William Koolage of 11 Vista Trail appeared as a concerned citizen and stated that changes in density in recent years have had negative effects on adjacent property owners. Mr. Koolage believed these adjacent property owners should be compensated in some way and reminded the Board of their responsibility to protect all property owners. Commissioner Eggert emphasized that this is not a zoning change and that the density remains the same. She felt that compatible does not mean identical and did not think changes are running wild. The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, he closed the public hearing. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously approved the planned development special exception use request for Lago Rey with the condition that the developer shall dedicate 76 feet of property along the site's 58th Avenue frontage for 58th Avenue road right-of-way, and granted a reduction in the minimum RS -1 lot size from 40,000 square feet to 25,000 square feet pursuant to Paragraph 14 of staff's memorandum, as amended.
