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. How would the requested Conditional Zoning District be consistent with the property’s classification on the Future Land Use Map located within the Comprehensive Plan? _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 3. What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning? _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 210-SINGLE-FAMILYHOMES PERDWELLINGUNIT @ 35LOTS 2635 Thepoliciesforgrowthanddevelopmentencouragesafeandaffordablehousingtobeavailabletoevery citizen.SustainabilityoftheCountydependsonsensiblein-fillandmaximizinguseoflandsalready accessibletourbanservices.Increaseddensityofdevelopmentnotonlyaddstothetaxbase,butmakes betteruseoftheexistinginfrastructure.
