Comprehensive Plan:
Lies within the boundaries of the Central Area Plan which suggests the property is
appropriate for residential use of 1.0 - 2.5 dwelling units per acre.
Area Development Trends:
Surrounding properties are zoned residentially and agriculturally and are developed as
part of the Colony Pointe, Evergreen Hills and Stanwick Subdivisions or as dwellings on
acreage parcels. It is anticipated that area properties will continue to develop for
residential uses at densities suggested by the Plan.
Zonin H.~ istory:
On December 15, 2004, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation
from the Planning Commission, approved Residential (R-12 and R-15) zoning on an 80.5
acre tract fronting the east line of Claypoint Road and the west line of Alberta Road.
Conditions of Case 04SN0269, in part, addressed minimum dwelling sizes. Subsequent to
approval of this case, the western portion of this property was recorded as the Colony
Pointe Subdivision. The eastern portion remains vacant and is the subject of this current
request.
Huse ~i yes:
Currently, conditions of Case 04SN0269 establish a minimum gross floor area of 2,000
square feet for dwelling units (Proffered Condition 5). This condition was a result of
negotiations with area property owners during the zoning process. The applicant is
requesting an amendment to reduce the minimum gross floor area to 1,600 square feet for
a maximum of thirty-six (36) dwelling units. All other dwelling units would contain a
minimum gross floor area of 2,000 square feet, to include dwellings on lots adjacent to
Stanwick Subdivision located east of the subject property along Alberta Road where
access to this development is also proposed. (Proffered Condition)
CONCLUSION
Conditions relative to dwelling sizes were negotiated with area property owners. After
consideration of public input, should the Commission and Board wish to approve this
amendment, acceptance of the Proffered Condition would be appropriate.
