The Article currently does not contain <br /> minimum required recreation space ratios for Planned <br /> Development - Mobile Home Parks. It also does not contain <br /> land use intensity ratios for Planned Development - Mobile <br /> Home Parks in R5, R8 and R13 zoning districts. <br /> The proposed amendment will correct these deficiencies by <br /> adding minimum required recreation space ratios for RB, AR, <br /> R1 , R2, R3 and R4 zoning districts. Furthermore, minimum <br /> gross land area, building height and land use intensity <br /> ratios will be added for R5, R8 and R13 districts. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Staff recommends approval of the proposed <br /> amendments. <br /> The Planning Board will prepare a recommendation on the <br /> proposed amendment at its June 15, 1987 meeting. The Board <br /> of Commissioners will consider the proposal for decision on <br /> July 6, 1987 . <br />
