Skye Area Plan amendment, Mixed Use 1 unit range
Recommended for approval · 4-1
DR Horton, which is buying about 38 acres and residential units held by Gardner Group, asked to raise the allowed range in Mixed Use Area 1 from 517 to as many as 627 equivalent residential units and to convert four nonresidential ERUs to residential, without raising Inverness's overall total. Scott Bishop said the change would move about 198 townhomes from upper Inverness to land near SR-92 and swap some upper-area townhomes for single-family homes. Staff said this could reduce hillside units and local road congestion. No public comment. The commission recommended approval 4-1.
