Commissioner Prince discussed the potential development that could happen under existing zoning. He did state his major public benefit was the massing of homes.

He stated to recommend approval of a PUD amendment of this type he wants to see a size and bulk cap. Bobby Ladd commented on the view corridors. Matt Gennett clarified the uses by right. Commissioner Green built on the comments made by Matt Gennett. Commissioner Anderson liked the proposed idea and liked the site plan.

He walked the commission through some calculations that suggested sale price. He questioned the proposed "locals housing" benefit versus the cost of the proposed home. Commissioner Green stated that the primarylsecondary could be proposed under existing zoning and would most likely reduce the overall massing.
