The Supervising Planner responded Council is voting on rezoning the property to R-2; assumptions were made to try to estimate how many units could be on the 4.8 acres; changing assumptions might increase or decrease the number of units; the Planning Board would approve the site plan and have discretion. Councilmember Daysog stated that he is satisfied with the staff recommendation; staff should work in a band of reasonableness and not allow an increase to 160 units. The Supervising Planner further stated with normal, square shaped lots, 83 units should be close to the maximum; there should not be significantly more than 83 units; significant being 20 units.
