Option I, retain the existing Low Density Residential land use and R1 zoning; develop the property by subdividing into six standard lots and dedicate a 50 - foot right-of-way. This arrangement would result in long, narrow lots measuring approximately 47 feet by 130 feet. Option II, retain the existing Low Density Resi- dential land use and Rl zoning; develop the property by subdividing into eight lots, providing access by means of a private 20 -foot street through the center of the parcel. This would result in lots 70.75 feet wide and 90 feet long. Option III, retain the existing Low Density Residential land use but rezone the property to PDR -LD (Planned Development Residential -Low Density). This zone would allow up to nine dwelling units which could be either attached or detached. Option IV, requested by the applicant,• would redesignate the land use for Medium Density Residential, assuming that the PDR -MD (Planned Development Residential -Medium Density) zoning would be applied. This zoning would allow con- struction of between 9 and 17 units depending on how fully the project meets the criteria listed in Section 13-252 of the Municipal Code. Applicant has indicated his intention of constructing 12 units on the property. The Planning staff has recommended implementation of Option II; therefore denying the request.
