Disposition Summary
ADOPT RESOLUTION #6-C-19-SP, amending the Northeast County Sector Plan to RC (Rural Commercial) designation and recommend that County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment (see attached resolution, Exhibit A.)
Staff Recommendation
ADOPT RESOLUTION #6-C-19-SP, amending the Northeast County Sector Plan to RC (Rural Commercial) designation and recommend that County Commission also adopt the sector plan amendment (see attached resolution, Exhibit A.)
Staff recommends approval of the plan amendment to RC (Rural Commercial) because the property has been historically used as a commercial greenhouse operation and is now unused and blighted. The property previously provided retail agricultural-related commercial uses for the adjacent community and these conditions warrant reconsideration of the existing land use plan to allow for RC (Rural Commercial) at this location.
