Zoning File #1080 March 9, 1987 Page 7 5. The current pattern of development of the subject properties and adjacent properties suggests more the pattern and use of an LR district rather than the five acre rural densities and use patterns of the northwest section. 6. A survey of 112 developed lots within the LR-lA zoning district surrounding the Stubbs Bay area revealed that the six properties considered for rezoning fall within the upper 25 percent, ranging from 1.5 acres to 5 acres. Only 23.6 percent or 27 of the 112 lots surveyed met the required 2 acre standard. 7. The rezoning of the subject properties would not result in an increase in density because of the 2 acre dry contiguous land per building site standards, and since the area is currently not sewered, wetland area credit is not available. 8. If the properties were to receive sewer, based on dry land configuration, location of existing improvements, wetlands credit and the required standards of platting, there would be no increase in density. A PRD is the only movie of development available that may result in an increase of approximately 2 to 3 units. 9. The northern dry land corridor of the properties remains under the RR-lA Rural Zoning requiring a minimum of 5 acres per building site. Council Action - To give conceptual direction to staff to draft the appropriate ordinance amendment for your formal action at the March 30th meeting and to further direct the City Engineer to draft a revised legal description for both the LR-lA and RR-lA zones and to record these changes on the official zoning maps of the City.
