Note : The submitted open space calculation consists of 323 . 9 acres of agricultural preserve area . 120. 7 acres of lake area. 183 . 3 acres of "recreational area", 21 . 7 acres of perimeter buffer. and 60 % of the individual lot area. 7 . Surrounding Land Use and Zoning : North : Grove and Pasture/A- 1 South : Grove and Pasture/A - 1 East : 82nd Avenue , Grove and Pasture/A- 1 West : Pasture/A- 1 8. Agricultural Preserve Area : The applicant is proposing agricultural preserve areas on the north and south sides of the golf course and residential development area. Under the proposed plans . the resulting project area breakdown would be as follows : • Golf course and residential development area. . . . . . 515 .20 acres • North agricultural preserve area . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 142 . 86 acres • South agricultural preserve area. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 181 . 04 acres Total . . . . . . . 839 . 10 acres The agricultural preserve areas have been "mined or stripped" of their density of 1 unit per 5 acres with that density transferred into the golf course and residential development area . The agricultural preserve areas are presently grove . The Southern preserve area is in a traditional block or square configuration ( 2 .656' by 3 , 100' ) , while the northern preserve area is more narrow in its north/south width ( 1 . 230' by 4 ,980' ) . If the PD plan is approved, the preserve area would need to be maintained as grove or some other type of other agricultural use or as open-space . This preservation would need to be ensured through restrictions on the final plat ( e . g . , open space easement ) and a covenant that would run with the land in favor of the County and future lot owners . 9. Traffic Circulation : The plan proposes a single access point for the project. Located in the 4700 block of 82nd Avenue, the project access road connects to an internal local road system that will loop through most of the site . The proposed system includes some short cul -de - sacs to provide access to the single family lots . If the project is approved, the applicant will be required to pave 82nd Ave from the existing paved section to the project entrance , prior to the issuance of a certificate of completion for Phase I . As of this time, Public Works staff has been unable to document whether or not sufficient right - of- way exists in order to pave 82nd Avenue to the project entrance . Consequently , staff, in its TRC review , asked the applicant to provide legal documentation of any 82nd Avenue right-of- way . The applicant is still in the process of researching this information . If the project is approved, the applicant will need to either document that adequate right-of- way exists for 82nd Avenue to pave 82nd Avenue from the end of the paved section to the project, or will need to otherwise ensure that necessary right-of- way is acquired . The documentation will need to be provided or the right-of- way acquired prior to the issuance of a land development permit . A traffic impact analysis ( TIA ) has been submitted by the applicant and reviewed and approved by the Traffic Engineering Division . As a result of the TIA, a north bound left turn lane is required along 82nd Ave at the project entrance . The north bound left turn lane will need to be constructed with the first phase of the development, and accepted by the County prior to the issuance of a certificate of completion .
