UTILITIES: ENVIRONMENTAL: PUBLIC FACILITIES: AND TRANSPORTATION
The proposed amendment will have a minimal impact on these facilities.
LAND USE
Comprehensive Plan:
Lies within the boundaries of the Southern and Western Area Plan which suggests the
property is appropriate for residential use of 1-5 acre lots; suited to R-88 zoning.
Area Develonment Trends:
The area is characterized by single family residential use and associated recreational use to
include a golf course and clubhouse within the Highlands Development.
Zoning History:
On March 22, 1989, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation from the
Planning Commission, approved rezoning to Residential (R-25) with Conditional Use to
permit recreational facilities on property now known as the Highlands development (Case
88SN0148). With approval of Case 88SN0148, conditions included setback requirements
for clubhouse, tennis court and swimming pool uses from residential lots.
Current Proposal:
Condition 10 of the existing zoning (Case 88SN0148) established a 200 foot setback for
clubhouse, tennis court and swimming pool uses.
This request is to modify the setback requirements for these uses. If approved, clubhouses
and any other indoor recreational facilities would be required to meet the setbacks for
Residential (R-25) Districts rather than the 200 feet currently required.
Proffered Conditions establish setback and buffer requirements for active recreational uses
such as outdoor play fields, tennis or basketball courts and swimming pools (Proffered
Conditions 1 and 2) consistent with that required for such uses in other developments. The
purpose of these setbacks is to minimize the noise impact of outdoor recreational uses on
area residents. The golf course and related appurtenances are not considered active
recreational areas and are not subject to these setback and buffer requirements.
Landscaping and Berm:
To address concerns of an adjacent property owner, Proffered Condition 3 reqUIres a
landscaped berm be installed along the property line of Tax ID 765-645-3181.
3
06SN0205-11A Y24-BOS
CONCLUSION
The recreational facilities provide an amenity for the Highlands development. The proffered
conditions will minimize the impact of active outdoor recreational uses on area residents.
Given these considerations, approval of this request is recommended.

public hearing.

4
06SN0205-MA Y24-BOS
Several persons stood in support of the request. An adjacent property owner expressed
concerns that a proposed expansion of the clubhouse would infringe upon residential
property rights due to increased noise and lighting.
Mr. Litton indicated that the proposed landscape buffer adjacent to the expansion area
should be sufficient to address the noise and lighting concerns.
On motion of Mr. Litton, seconded by Mr. Gulley, the Commission recommended approval
and acceptance of the proffered conditions on page 2.
AYES: Unanimous.
The Board of Supervisors, on Wednesday, May 24, 2006, beginning at 7:00 p.m., will take under
consideration this request.
