George Hamner, Jr. believed that clustering should be eliminated and each project <br />should be examined on its own merit. <br />Deb Robinson noted that we do not live in an urban community but in a rural <br />community. The quality of life is the biggest reason people move here. <br />Will Collins, 6150 69'h Street, commented that he has a masters degree in urban <br />planning and did not believe clustering would drive up the cost of services. He felt that the <br />County might need less landfill area because these residents would have 55 -gallon drums for <br />compost, there would be no stormwater impact, and no recreational impact because they <br />could enjoy their own property. <br />Larry Putney, 780012 Street, was in the process of purchasing property outside the <br />urban service area and had been advised that his 2 40 -acre parcels could be split once into <br />4 10 -acre parcels. He questioned whether an individual purchasing a 20 -acre parcel could <br />split that parcel into 210 -acre parcels. <br />Director Boling responded that such an individual purchasing a 20 -acre parcel outside <br />the urban service area would have to apply for an agricultural PD to divide the property into <br />210 -acre parcels. <br />Director Keating noted that the County has a 40 -acre exemption but believed this is <br />a "big picture" issue and the Board really needs to think about how the County's growth <br />should proceed. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Tippin, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Ginn, that clustering <br />requirements be deleted from Agricultural Pds. <br />OCTOBER 14, 1999 -25- BOOK III PAGGE <br />
