However, the higher number could be possible if a developer chooses to <br />shift development from constrained lands to developable areas as long as the overall gross <br />density is not exceeded, This is presently permitted with our regulations. <br />3 The potential of development in this area will be pursuant to a small area planning process.. <br />Staff proposes to lower density throughout the watershed (as also suggested by UNRBA) <br />including the transition area. A return to higher densities may be through rezoning, Special Use <br />Permits and performance standards enacted by the BOCC after the small area planning <br />process. <br />G.\Adminishadve Div\Shetri\Cmig \Link Lcum\ ink 9 -1.04 doc <br />
