Roger Kolstad, Rosedale Estates Case No. 2426 Page 3 credits into account, the following is a comparison of the densities for tþè Rosedale Estates apartments - allowed, existing, and proposed. / / / Use Densitv R-7 Allowed R-3 Allowed 11.2 u/a 24.0 u/a Existing/Net Existing/Gross 32.1 u/a (R-7 area only) 17.3 u/a (with R-1 buffer land) proposed/Net Proposed/Gross 24.8 u/a (Apartment area only) 18.5 u/a (with 24 new SF units) considering the large difference in allowable density between the R-3 and R-7 Dis~ricts, and the eventual density achieved, it is ,curious that the existing plan was a rezoning to R-7 and not to R-3. 3. DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS ComÐrehensive Plan & Zoninq Code References The entire residential area of the site, including the R-1 buffer, is guided in the comprehensive Plan as HR High Density Residential. The two B-2 parcels are guided B - Business. The Housing Policies section of the Plan includes the following: GOAL: Encourage opportunities for a balanced population with respect to age and economic composition. POLICY: Encourage innovative planning and design in residential developments. POLICY: Adopt more flexible minimum standards for single family and mUlti-family housing developments to allow for innovative developments and more efficient densities. The R-1 District allows single family homes and other compatible uses, such as schools, churches, and parks. However, according to the conditions in the Special Use Permit for this project, the R-1 area would not be allowed to have any active use and would need to remain vacant unless a new approval is granted, either a revision of the Special Use Permit or a new PUD.
