2 <br /> PROPOSED ORDINANCE AMENDMENT <br /> ORDINANCE: ZONING ORDINANCE <br /> REFERENCE: Article 6.23 -Watershed Protection Overlay Districts (subdividing two or more lots of <br /> record in University Lake Watershed) <br /> ORIGIN OF AMENDMENT: Staff Planning Board <br /> BOCC x Public <br /> Other: <br /> STAFF PRIORITY RECOMMENDATION: _x High Middle Low <br /> PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 30, 1994 <br /> PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT: <br /> To consider a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to allow the transfer of dwelling units across common <br /> boundaries of adjoining lots of record for cluster subdivisions within the University Lake Watershed. <br /> E%IPACTS/ISSUES: <br /> Article 6.23.2 of the Zoning Ordinance regulates the maximum residential densities allowed in Orange County's 13 <br /> protected watershed overlay districts. The following requirement pertains to residential density in the University Lake <br /> Watershed, including its Critical Area: <br /> "Up to five lots at least two acres in size can be created from a lot of record as of October 3, <br /> 1989. Thereafter, each lot shall contain at least five acres, and the density shall not exceed <br /> one (1) dwelling unit per five acres." <br /> Under current regulations, all of the lots which could be created from a lot of record must be contained within the lot <br /> boundary in existence on October 3, 1989. This requirement can limit design flexibility in cases where a subdivision <br /> consists of two or more adjacent lots of record. <br /> The proposed amendment was initiated by.a citizen after inquiring into possibilities for creating a cluster subdivision <br /> on two existing adjoining lots in the University Lake Watershed. Two separate subdivisions could be created, each of <br /> which would contain five two-acre lots with the remaining lots averaging five acres. A single unified subdivision <br /> containing the same number of lots, with ten of them containing two acres, could not be created if any more than five <br /> of the two-acre lots was to be located on one of the original parcels. <br /> Correspondence from the applicant is attached. Below is the proposed amendment as recommended by the Planning <br /> Staff. The text of the amendment as submitted by the applicant has been modified for clarity. <br />
