Approve the PR (Planned Residential) zone up to 2 du/ac on the portion of the parcel zoned A (Agricultural) because it is consistent with the sector plan and surrounding development. The F (Floodway) zone will be retained.
This zone provides for a wide range of agricultural and related uses as well as residential uses with low population densities and other compatible uses which generally require large areas or open spaces.
The F, Floodway Zones, are established for the purpose of meeting the needs of the streams to carry floodwaters of a five hundred (500) year frequency flood and protecting the river, creek channels and floodplains from encroachment so that flood heights and flood damage will not be increased; to provide the necessary regulations for the protection of the public health and safety in areas subject to flooding; and to reduce the financial burdens imposed on the community by floods and the overflow of lands.
The regulations established in this zone are intended to provide optional methods of land development which encourage more imaginative solutions to environmental design problems. Residential areas thus established would be characterized by a unified building and site development program, open space for recreation and provision for commercial, religious, educational, and cultural facilities which are integrated with the total project by unified architectural and open space treatment.
