SECTOR PLAN AMENDMENT REQUIREMENTS FROM GENERAL PLAN (May meet 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 sites adjacent to agricultural areas (AG or AGC) where conservation/cluster housing subdivisions may be appropriate.

INTRODUCTION OF SIGNIFICANT NEW ROADS OR UTILITIES THAT WERE NOT ANTICPATED IN THE PLAN AND MAKE DEVELOPMENT MORE FEASIBLE:
1. There are no significant new roads or utilities.

AN OBVIOUS OR SIGNIFCANT ERROR OR OMISSION IN THE PLAN:
1. The AG (Agricultural) land use designation is not the result of an error or omission in the sector plan. However, RR may be considered in the Rural Area of the Growth Policy Plan.
2. The RR land use classification allows consideration of PR at 3 du/ac in the Northwest County sector plan.

TRENDS IN DEVELOPMENT, POPULATION OR TRAFFIC THAT WARRANT RECONSIDERATION OF THE ORGINAL PLAN PROPOSAL:
1. There is a single family residential neighborhood across the street from this property. It is made of small lots averaging 10,000 sq-ft.
