The use of the land will remain single family and agriculture. The site has frontage on both Crystal Valley and Colonel Carl Miller Road. According to the base map, there is a creek that crosses the site and some wetland lands on the property. Land use in the general vicinity is primarily single family residences on large tracts. Other uses found in the area include a church, mini -warehouse units and several auto related use, including auto repair and storage. At this time, a high percentage of land is still undeveloped. The current zoning is R-2, 0-3, AF and PCD. All of the reclassifications were accomplished through the recent Area II zoning effort and the PLDs are for existing uses. The adopted plan for this part of Area II shows open space, single family and office uses for the 46 acres under consideration. Reclassifying the site to AF is not a significant variation from the plan's overall direction, and should not have any impact on the surrounding properties. The southeast corner of Crystal Valley and Colonel Carl 1 April 21, 1992 ITEM NO.: 2 Z-5556 Cont. Miller Road is zoned AF and 0-3. Therefore, approval of the requested AF will duplicate the other corner and conform to an accepted zoning pattern for the area.
