Attachment 2 48 <br /> LUDINGTON POSITION ON 1/21/93 RCSC RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> 1. The overall density is too high. We will be adding significant density to <br /> the County with the proposed plan, much greater than what is currently <br /> allowed (See attached figures). <br /> Although Randall Arendt's density yield plan was never given serious <br /> consideration, I believe such a plan provides a far superior method for <br /> determining density than a sliding scale. I would modify his process, <br /> however, to allow for more "buildable land." <br /> 2. Commercial development permitted is far too vague, Most troubling is <br /> the fact that it is not confined to any particular area but is allowed in any <br /> open space development. <br /> Further, to allow unspecified development with no limit on size of tract is <br /> asking for trouble. Andres Duany's Traditional Neighborhood Design <br /> ordinance should be studied carefully. <br /> A public hearing is in order if commercial development is to be permitted <br /> anywhere that open space development is allowed. <br />
