body
BRIEF OVERVIEW
Rezoning Request:
Rezoning from PDP(RR)/Planned Development Project (Resort Residential) to PDP(SF)/Planned Development Project (Single Family)
General Location:
Southwest side of Croom Rital Road, approximately 1535 feet northwest of Cortez Boulevard (S.R. 50)
Parcel Key Number:
373090, 373660, 862604
Summary of Applicant’s Request:
Background
The property was originally rezoned in 2007 (File No. H0698) from PDP(SF)/Planned Development Project (Single Family) and AG (Agricultural) to PDP(MF)/Planned Development Project (Multifamily) with an approved density of 9.84 units to the acre.
In 2010 the property was rezoned again from PDP(MF)/Planned Development Project (Multifamily) to PDP(RR)/Planned Development Project (Resort Residential) (File No. H-10-12). This rezoning allowed for the development of 241 townhomes for tourist and resort usage, which are no longer marketable uses in this community.
Current Request
The proposed development proposes a Rezoning from PDP(RR)/Planned Development Project (Resort Residential) to PDP(SF)/Planned Development Project (Single Family) to develop a 108 single-family home subdivision, reducing the overall project density by 55%. The units proposed are for permanent single-family residents. This will assist in creating a sustainable neighborhood and provide more stability within the Ridge Manor neighborhood.
