That meeting has been scheduled for Monday, May 21st. A copy of the notice mailed and posted is included. The referenced project was reviewed by County staff during the standard four- week preliminary plat approval process, and then presented to the Technical Review Committee on Wednesday, April 25th. It was only then brought to light that development in the R-20S district was not afforded the right to use the performance development subdivision standards. Rezoning to an R-20 district was necessary, and time was limited to meet the next process cycle submittal deadline. The rezoning request is simply to allow the development to be designed by the performance provisions. No density increase is being proposed. The meeting will be held prior to advertisement for and hearing by the Planning Board on Thursday, June 7th. A report will be filed immediately after. We do not believe that the minor delay in completing the meeting will have an impact on the process, and that the spirit, purpose and intent of the ordinance will be still be satisfied. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or need additional information. Thank you for your consideration.

The procedure is intended primarily for use with transitions between zoning districts of very dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and the community-at-large. The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Conditional Use Zoning District meets the following criteria. 1. How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development? (For example: the Comprehensive Plan and applicable small area plans) _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 2.
