sfi.i/Lelipy 7/— 3 /9 --/e7 0 13 4 PROPOSED ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT ARTICLE 5 .1 .1 SCHEDULE FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT (REQUIRED MINIMUM RECREATION SPACE RATIO) ISSUE : Section IV—B-7—b of the Subdivision Regulations is a proposed amendment which would require the dedication (or provision) of recreation facilities or a payment in lieu . The proposed amendment contains a formula for the computation of required recreation and/or open space area . S .F . = 'N x P x R Where S .F . = Area , in square feet , of the Land required to be dedicated (or provided) for recreation and/or open space purposes . N = Number of lots or dwelling units proposed in the subdivision . P = Average family size according to the latest decennial census for the township in which the subdivision is located . R = A ratio equivalent to 0 .01050 or 10 .50 acres of developed recreation area or open space per 1 ,000 population recommended by the National Recreation and Parks Association (NRPA) as the standard for the establishment of a "core" system of parklands . The proposed amendment requires parklands based on the application of the formula or "by application of the provisions of Article 5 .1 .1 (Required Minimum Recreation Space Ratio) and Article 6 .12 ( Land Use Intensity System) of the Orange County Zoning Ordinance , whichever results in the greater amount . " Application of the two standards ( see attached comparison ) indicates that the formula will consistently result in the greater amount . An amendment to Article 5 .1 .1 Schedule For Residential Development is necessary to adjust the required minimum Recreatio Space Ratio (RSR) to match the formula results . Specifically , the provisions for lot—by--Lot application of the RSR must be amended and adjustments made to accommodate Planned Developments (1 and 2) .
