C.C. DATE:

June 13, 2000
LOCATION: DeForest Road, east and west of The Estates of
Cambridge Manor
SIZE OF REQUEST ·

McDonald and Scott G. and Sharon Watts
CURRENT ZONING:
A (Agriculture)
PROPOSED ZONING: SF 12 (Single Family -12)
HISTORY:
Residential PD's have been established adjacent to these
properties over the past several years. The minimum lot
sizes range from 9,000 to 12,000 square feet. These PD's
include: The Estates of Cambridge Manor, Stratford
Manor, DeForest Court and Windsor Estates. The subject
tracts are leave out tracts from the previous zoning and
development activities.
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:
Along the north side of Deforest Road, SF-12 zoning has
been established in various Planned Developments. At the
eastern terminus of Deforest is PD 163 for SF-9 lots. The
south side of DeForest Road are Planned Developments
for single family homes on smaller lots.

Item # 10
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows this property suitable for
flood plain, however, most of this land has been removed
from the flood plain.
DISCUSSION:
There are six properties under consideration for SF-12
District zoning. Five of the six properties are currently
developed with newly constructed single family homes.
One property contains a small, older home which is prime
for redevelopment. Residential PD's surround these
properties with minimum lot sizes ranging from 9,000 to
12,000 square feet. These PD's include: The Estates of
Cambridge Manor, Stratford Manor, DeForest Court and
Windsor Estates. The subject tracts are leave out tracts
from the previous zoning and development activities.
The establishment of SF-12 zoning will recognize the
existing uses on the property and be in accordance with
the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan
designated a portion of this area as flood plain; however,
the portions closest to DeForest Road are actually out of
the flood plain and, therefore, could be developed for
single family uses.
The only undeveloped tract effected by this zoning action
is the Dutt property. This tract has a lot width of 64:1: and
a depth of 460'/: feet. While it meets the acreage
requirement of the proposed SF- 12 district (the lot
contains almost 30,000 square feet), the lot with is
substandard. However, once this zoning is established,
per Section 40-5-4 of the Zoning Ordinance, a lot may be
substandard if it is an "official lot of record". Section 42-
75 defines "Lot of Record" as an "area of land designated
as a lot on a plat ..... or an area of land held in single
ownership described by metes and bounds upon a deed
recorded and registered with the County Clerk".
Therefore, this property owner will be allowed to
construct a home on this property with a substandard
width. All other properties north of Deforest will be in
conformance with the zoning established.
