3 S AFF COMMENTS (RECOMMENDATIONS
T is area was rezoned to R-S in 1983 as a part of the Family Tree master.. plan for the area that is now
~ d veloped as Westchester Park and Brandon Heights. Family Tree was never completed. Dther
~ t .the
d velopers have since purchased different portions of the.area. nvolved. Through a series of repla s,
a ea has become a node of low density, single family development.
~~
T e applicant is ~n the process of replattmg thrs property into single. family .lots.. The current zoning
n would allow single family: development, but would. not ..preclude other residential development such. as
d lex or multi-famil .The rezoning would provide additional assurance that only single family
P Y
d veloprnent will occur within the subject area.
Due o the fact that the re nest is not in conflict with the land use plan nor with development policies,
q
st ff would recommend approval.
