The NSSP Land Use Designation for the site is PUD-Agriculture, which allows a maximum density of 1 .0 dwelling unit per acre. The proposal would change the land use designation of an approximately 1.01-acre northern portion of the site from PUD-Agriculture to PUD-Medium Density Residential. The PUD-Medium Density Residential land use category allows a maximum density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre. The proposed density of the PUD-Medium Density Residential portion of the site would be 3.0 dwelling units per acre. The remaining 2.27-acre southern portion of the site would retain the PUD-Agriculture land use designation and would contain two dwelling units, resulting in a density of 0.9 dwelling units per acre. When the project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at the work session, the proposed land use designation for the northern 1 .01-acre portion of the site was suggested to be PUD-LDR (Planned Unit Development— Low Density Residential). However, since the proposed density for this 1.01-acre portion of the site would be 3.0 dwelling units per acre and the PUD-LDR land use designation only allows a density range of 0-2 dwelling units per acre, staff determined the land use designation, if modified at all, should be PUD-MDR, which allows a maximum density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre. Specific Plan Amendments The proposed development would require the following amendments to the NSSP: a. Change the land use designation of an approximately 1.01-acre portion of the site from Planned Unit Development —Agricultural (PUD-A) to Planned Unit Development — Medium Density Residential (PUD-MDR); b. Rezone an approximately 1.01-acre portion of the site from Planned Unit Development — Agricultural (PUD-A) district to Planned Unit Development — Medium Density Residential (PUD-MDR) district; c. Allow the proposed PUD-MDR lots to access from Sycamore Creek Way; d. Realign the planned public trail on the project site; e. Allow the proposed Lot 5 with a PUD-A land use designation to be less than one acre in area. Analysis Land Use Change: Staff does not recommend that any amendment to the Specific Plan be approved to allow an increase in density for the project. The NSSP clearly intends that projects should be proposed in conformance to the governing development standards. The NSSP states the following: A. OVERALL GOAL The primary goal of this Specific Plan is to provide a clear plan to guide future land use and development within he study area, to protect and buffer the existing semi-rural character of current residences, to protect and restore the natural environment to the extent feasible, and to provide a coordinated plan for infrastructure improvement in the area. And, among its land use goals, the NSSP states: 4. Provide a Specific Plan which facilitates the orderly development of lands within the planning area in a manner which: a.
