I was troubled by an email sent by our unofficial "organizer", Chris Kelsey, reminding us of the <br /> date of the next meeting. He indicated that the Planning Department was retaining rural <br /> residential zoning, but still wants to change the Land Use Classification from rural residential to <br /> EDE-1, which allows a number of non-residential entities. <br /> I research land use classification and zoning and the difference between the two. <br /> I found that a Land Use Map is a graphic representation of physical uses of land. These land <br /> use maps are highly visible within most community plans, often showing both current land use <br /> and plans for future land use. Land Use Maps identify land uses by category. These typically <br /> include Residential, Industrial, Commercial, Natural Areas, Agricultural, and Civic uses. Land <br /> Use maps can be either very broad or very detailed depending on the context or reasoning <br /> behind creating the map. The land use map is an important tool for identifying existing <br /> conditions and for working toward a vision for the community. <br /> On the other hand, a Zoning Map is a graphic depiction of the boundaries for which a certain <br /> set of standards or regulations have been adopted by a governmental entity. The zoning map <br /> typically provides predictability for the residents and development community as to what type <br /> of land uses may be expected and allowed within each zone district. Land is divided into zone <br /> districts from the zoning code which describes the intent and regulations of each particular <br /> zone category. A typical zone district will set forth regulations for permitted land uses, building <br /> height, density, setbacks, minimum lot sizes, etc. <br /> So, to summarize, a Future Land Use Map generally reflects the pattern of development that <br /> the community desires to see in specific areas, whereas the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning <br /> Map establish the actual use of land including the density, intensity, height, and form of <br /> development. <br /> I also found out that if a property owner wants to develop or use their property in ways that do <br /> not conform to their current zoning regulation, they must apply for a change in their zoning <br /> classification, also referred to as a rezoning. Zoning regulations, and the rezoning process, <br /> are often a key part of implementing area plans. <br /> All this research led me to one scary conclusion: that if you all approve the land use <br /> classification to be changed to EDE-1, you are making a decision that would go against the <br /> vision and desires of the community regarding future land use. Furthermore, you are making it <br /> that much easier for an individual land owner who may want to have their land rezoned in the <br /> future to suit their own needs without regard to the vision and desires of the community. The <br /> rezoning is more likely to be approved if the land use is already classified non-residential. <br /> Finally, this is what Wikipedia says about Land Use: <br /> "The major effect of land use on land cover since 1750 has been deforestation of temperate <br /> regions. More recent significant effects of land use include urban sprawl, soil erosion, soil <br /> degradation, salinization, and desertification. Land-use change, together with use of fossil <br /> fuels, are the major sources of carbon dioxide, a dominant greenhouse gas. According to a <br /> report by the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization, land degradation has been <br /> exacerbated where there has been an absence of any land use planning, or of its orderly <br /> execution, or the existence of financial or legal incentives that have led to the wrong land use <br />
