Zoning File #1080 March 9, 1987 Page 6 The northern dry land portions of the Burger's, Maus' and Miner's properties would remain at the five acre density. Based on the current unsewered LR-lA standards, there would be no change in densities within the developed southern parcels. Remember Miners' property is made up of 3 independent parcels each with a residence structure. The overall effects of the proposed rezoning on t' ixisting properties would be ne,ligible. The City on the other hand % gain because now it would have the environmental controls needed o% such sensitive land areas. Remember the LR districts have the only standards to control the degree or the intensity of development - Lhe hardcover standard. Mr. McDowell has released all interest in the application as amended by staff. Prior to Planning Commission action, staff sent written notice to each of the affected land owners advising them of the City's intenL (See Exhibit O). The neighbors no longer object because the undeveloped northern area of the parcels remain in the RR-1A, five acre minimum area zone. There will be no change in density within the southern dry buildable area.
