BOOK 103 PAGE 252 <br />Kathy Woolsey, 8625 70' Avenue, was opposed to the change in land use designation <br />by SR -510. She asked why it was being proposed, what the pressures were to make it <br />happen, and why it should be done now. She also asked how it would affect her taxes. <br />Director Keating stated he had spoken to the Property Appraiser who told him that <br />generally they do not change their assessment, particularly if there is an agricultural <br />exemption, unless the property owner requested, and the County approved, a rezoning. He <br />went on to explain in detail the reasoning behind the recommendation which drew the <br />conclusion that in order to prevent "urban sprawl", it is better to have land use designation <br />a little bit higher than R, which is not a good developable type of land use designation. <br />Commissioner Adams explained that in the Comprehensive Plan, there is an attempt <br />to "step down" the designations. <br />With respect to Ms. Woolsey's pressure concerns, Chairman Eggert pointed out this <br />is a land use designation, not zoning. The present zoning will be maintained unless the <br />property owner comes in specifically asking for a zoning change. <br />Commissioner Adams added that this is looking to the future, to the year 2020. <br />Chairman Eggert asked if anyone else wished to speak concerning proposed land use <br />designations. <br />(CLERK'S NOTE <br />depicted in the following area map.) <br />OCTOBER 29, 1997 <br />The next speaker spoke about land use designation <br />n. <br />
