Approval Needed Reviewing Body 1. Conceptual Plan/Special Exception PZC & BCC 2. Preliminary PD Plan/Plat PZC 3. Land Development Permit (LDP) or Waiver Staff 4. Final PD (plat) BCC The applicant is now requesting approval of the first two steps. If approved by the Board of County Commissioners, the applicant will need to obtain from public works an LDP or LDP waiver for the design of required PD improvements. • Planning and Zoning Commission Action At its regular meeting of September 27, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC) voted unanimously (6-0) to recommend Board approval of the P.D. special exception use request, and granted conditional preliminary PD plat/plan approval subject to the Board's action on the planned development special exception use request. The PZC action included a recommendation that all lots along the site's east perimeter (abutting Walking Horse Hammock) be increased from a minimum size of 9,100 square feet to 10,000 square feet and to delete pedestrian connections to the adjacent neighborhoods. The applicant has revised the proposed P.D. plan to increase the lot sizes accordingly but not remove the pedestrian connections, and that is the plan being presented to the BCC. The Board is now to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the special exception use request. Pursuant to Section 971.05 of the LDRs, the Board is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use for the subject site and surrounding area. The board may attach any conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area. ANALYSIS 0. 1. Size of PD Area: 43.85 acres 2. Zoning Classifications: RS -3, Residential Single -Family (up to u CH, Heavy Commercial mts� acre) 3. Land Use Designations: L-21Low Density Residential 2 (up to 6 units/acre) C/I, Commercial Industrial Note: There is a 50' strip of CH zoning at the south project boundary which will be used as a conservation tract. That use is acceptable as accessory to a residential development. 4. Phasing: The project is proposed to be constructed in one phase. 5. Density: Overall Site: Maximum Allowed: 3 units/acre (131 units) Proposed: 2.49 units/acre (109 units) Note: At the staff's request, the applicant has prepared a plan that maximizes the design for a conventional RS -3 layout. That design yields 121 lots on 43.85 acres for a density of 2.76 units/acre. The greater yield is achieved by not having a centralized stormwater management facility, but by using wide side and rear yard swales to accommodate the stormwater management within the yard area.
