Item No. 3 PC: 12-4-86 ZR-87-10 Page 3 STAFF ANALYSIS BACKGROUND: Two parcels totaling 2.0 acres, located adjacent to the subject property and fronting on Harlan Road, were rezoned from I-PA to 0-2 by the Board of Supervisors on November 13, 1986 (Application No. ZR-87-3). As part of that rezoning, staff was directed to initiate a CS (Commercial Service) rezoning for this property as soon as the CS zone is created. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: General Plan and Zoning: The General Plan Land Use/Circulation Element Map designates the subject property as Low Density Residential and Commercial Service, with the Commercial Service located along Harlan Road (refer to General Plan map). Although the Commercial Service area is designated as a band along Harlan Road (that is, it does not follow property lines), the proposed rezoning for residential and commercial is considered to be in substantial conformance with the General Plan land use designations. That portion of the project site (30.43 acres) proposed for rezoning to Rl-U has been designated as Low Density Residential on the Land Use/Circulation Element Map. The General Plan/ Zoning Consistency Matrix adopted by the Board of Supervisors on June 15, 1976, indicates three zoning districts that are consistent with Low Density Residential: R1-10, R1-8, and R1-U. This proposed rezoning to RI-U is therefore consistent with the General Plan land use designation. Under the Low Density Residential land use designation, two to six dwelling units per gross acre are allowed. The minimum lot size for Rl-U zoning is 6,000 square feet net. Therefore, any sub- sequent development with 6,000-square-foot lots would be con- sistent with the upper limit of six dwelling units per gross acre (allowing approximately 20 percent of the land area for streets and dedications). Any future residential development will require a tentative subdivision map, which is a descretionary action and subject to agency and public review. Development will also require the availability of public water, sanitary sewer, and terminal drainage facilities. That portion of the project site (7.86 acres) proposed for rezoning to C-M or C-2 has been designated as Commercial
