Approve the sector plan amendment to RR (Rural Residential) and HP (Hillside Protection) because it is consistent with the surrounding development.

SECTOR PLAN AMENDMENT REQUIREMENTS FROM GENERAL PLAN (May meet any one of these):

CHANGES OF CONDITIONS WARRANTING AMENDMENT OF THE LAND USE PLAN:
1. Though there have been no major changes in this area in the last few decades, the location criteria for RR (Rural Residential) is met by this location because it is characterized by very low density residential land uses, in a rural area and has some steep slope topography.

INTRODUCTION OF SIGNIFICANT NEW ROADS OR UTILITIES THAT WERE NOT ANTICIPATED IN THE PLAN AND MAKE DEVELOPMENT MORE FEASIBLE:
1. There have not been significant new roads in this area, however, the development intensity recommended under the RR land use classification is very similar to the existing AG classification, both of which are mean for areas of very low residential densities and agricultural land.

AN OBVIOUS OR SIGNIFICANT ERROR OR OMISSION IN THE PLAN:
1. There isn't a significant error or omission in the plan.

TRENDS IN DEVELOPMENT, POPULATION OR TRAFFIC THAT WARRANT RECONSIDERATION OF THE ORIGINAL PLAN PROPOSAL:
1. No new information that has been produced by this agency has revealed the need for a plan amendment. However, local data sources and national data trends note an increased demand for housing and this plan amendment could enable additional opportunities for additional residential development.
