Body
ISSUE: The Pradera Group, LLC is proposing to amend the zoning plan for an existing four lot subdivision along Spring Street. This zoning amendment will allow for the addition of 1.3 acres to existing subdivision for the construction of five new single-family homes at density of 3.84 units per acre. With the zoning proposal, the overall subdivision would increase from 4 lots to 9 lots and the density would decrease from 3.84 units per acre to 3.81 units per acre. The additional 1.3 acres with the five new homes will require rezoning from R-15 to RAD-Conditional.

The current zoning proposal was heard by the Planning and Zoning Board at the August 10, 2015 meeting and was recommended for denial by a vote of 7-0.
