Senior Planner Susan Eddy appeared before the Board regarding this item. She advised that
this was a request to include 267 acres ofland into the Urban Development Area and the Sewer and
Water Service Area as well as a modification to the West Jubal Early Land Use Plan and an
extension of this plan to cover the entire parcel. The version ofthe land use plan being considered
by the Board is dated November 22,2005 and includes all of the modifications requested by the
Board of Supervisors. She went on to say that a majority ofthe land would be in residential use with
a density of four (4) dwelling units per acre. There are also two areas designated for commercial
use. The text of the plan calls for a site for school facilities. Another key component is
transportation, which includes the extension of West Jubal Early Drive to Route 37. The Planning
Commission held its public hearing on December 7, 2005 and recommended approval.
Supervisor Ewing asked Senior Planner Eddy to go over the transportation proffers for this
project.
Senior Planner Eddy advised that nothing had been proffered at this point; however, the land
use plan sets the parameters for the rezoning.

again noted that all of the Board's requested changes were made.
