It is recommended that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners.

DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS:

On November 5, 2001, Steven C. and Teresa S. Smith, property owners, submitted an application to the Growth Management Department to change the Future Land Use designation pursuant to Chapter 163.3187(1)(c), Florida Statutes, Amendment of Adopted Comprehensive Plan, Small Scale Development Amendments. Stuart Rogers, P.E., is designated as Agent of Record. This property is located on Spring Valley Road. The property comprises 9.98 acres and is identified as Parcel ID No. 18-24-21-0000-00100-0000, a portion thereof. The applicant is requesting a Future Land Use designation change from AG/R (Agricultural/Rural) to RES-1 (Residential, 1 du/ga).

The subject property is part of 37.5 acres owned by the applicant, which is all zoned A-R. The parent parcel contains 21.9 acres with a Future Land Use designation of RES-1, which permits a residential density of 1 dwelling unit per gross acre; and 15.6 acres with a Future Land Use designation of AG/R, which permits a residential density of 0.20 dwelling units per gross acre. The applicant is proposing to extend the existing RES-1 Future Land Use designation to include an additional 9.98 acres. The requested change in the future land use designation from AG/R to RES-1 will bring more of the applicant’s property into conformance with the parcel’s A-R zoning which permits a residential density of 1 dwelling unit per gross acre. The property being considered in this request is currently undeveloped.

On March 4, 2002, the applicant requested that Small Scale Development Amendment SSDA02-02 be withdrawn.

ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS:

Because the applicant has requested that Small Scale Development Amendment SSDA02-02 be withdrawn, there are no alternatives for the Board’s consideration.

RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING:

The Growth Management Department staff recommends that the Board accept the applicant’s request to withdraw Small Scale Amendment SSDA02-02.

No funding is required for this action.
