size

10,000

square-feet

(R-10,000)

to

Single-Family
Residential, minimum lot size 7,000 square-feet (R-7,000).

The

proposed

project

would

bring

new

single-family

housing

to

an

undeveloped

area.

The
development

would

be

governed

by

a

homeowners’

association

(HOA),

which

would

manage
the

common

open

space

areas,

and

ensure

quality

standards

are

enforced.

In

addition,

the
project

would

be

compatible

with

the

single-family

homes

and

other

residential

uses

that
surround

the

proposed

subject

site.

Therefore,

staff

is

recommending

approval

to

change

the
zoning designation from R-10,000 to R-7,000.
