service area and into a public designation as they have done with the Landfill so they can <br />point out to the DCA that a net reduction in the urban service area and density have been <br />achieved. The rural village idea would create capital expenditures for utilities seri ice lines <br />running past properties that cannot use the service to reach distant properties that can use <br />it. This was his reason far including that the property must have water and sewer �vailable <br />at the property boundary. He asked, why not use the infrastructure when it is alreahy there? <br />He recommended 20 acres because he did not want to see a broad, repugnant -to -DCA, plan <br />amendment go to Tallahassee. Far the same reason he suggested the property mus abut the <br />urban service area so as not to leapfrog as would happen with rural villages, a vely trendy <br />concept, in the course of development.

Mr. Clontz has no interest in the rural village concept <br />and no change is not a reasonable option.

He had suggested the PI,) concept <br />to provide a density bonus of three units from one unit per acre for clustering. Vt�ith a PD, <br />a developer could afford the buffers in exchange for the increased density. H� was not <br />wedded to the PD, three units per acre as across the road would be satisfactory; they will <br />accept the buffering and other provisions. He requested the Board direct staff to prepare the <br />plan amendment, go with 3-unitslacre if they wished or, perhaps, increase the minimum size <br />to 30 or 44 acres or reduce it to 10 acres. He thought a reduction would create problems in <br />the scope ofthe amendment, and an increase would not help 1VIr. Clontz. He compared these <br />ideas to his previous concept for the Disney Resort and stood ready to respond to questions. <br />Vice Chairman Ginn commented that if the site abuts acommercial/ind�.�strial use <br />there were not too many people who would want to live next to an industrial or even a <br />commercial area. <br />Mr. 4'Haire agreed but thought if the county is ever going to have affordable housing <br />December 12, 2000 <br />' BKlI�PG��8 1�$ <br />_ � <br />
