OTHER DEPARTMENT/AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

County Counsel

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The creation of five (5) residential parcels would allow for the future development of four (4) residential units which would provide additional property tax revenue for the County.

 

CLERK OF THE BOARD FOLLOW UP ACTIONS

1) Clerk to obtain the Chair's signature on the original copy of the Rezone Ordinance.

2) Clerk to send one (1) fully executed copy of the Rezone Ordinance to the Planning and Building Department, attention of Aurora Osbual.

 

STRATEGIC PLAN COMPONENT

Economic Development and Good Governance. This project aligns with the Economic Development goals of the County's Strategic Plan as allowing the change of the zoning designation would allow for the development of three additional residential units that would provide property tax revenue. It is also a practice of Good Governance as the project would include needed improvements to a County-maintained roadway, improving vehicular and emergency vehicle access for the public benefit.
