PlanningBoard | 2018-11-13 | 4 | said he wants to try and prevent the need to amend multiple documents any time a change in policy is needed. He said the intent of the 0.5 FAR appeared to apply to the shoreline properties and not the entire business park. He said he would be in support of that clarification. President Sullivan asked if eliminating some information in the General Plan would make the document less clear. She asked Board Member Teague what, for example, he would eliminate in the low density housing section. Board Member Teague read the clause that he would remove. He said he would be okay leaving the existing numbers. He said he would like to refer to exemptions in the zoning code. He said he did not want to call out specific sections in case the state passes new laws or we change the zoning code. Board Member Curtis asked if these changes would cover the gap when the Harbor Bay development agreement expires. Staff Member Thomas said the General Plan, zoning, and prior development plans will still govern the business park. Board Member Curtis thanked staff and said his colleagues have done a great job providing feedback and flexibility on the issue. Board Member Teague made a motion to recommend that the City Council make changes to the General Plan as specified by staff with the following changes: the FAR sentence be restored, strike the follow on clauses in the descriptions of the residential densities, rewrite the residential density exemption to be referential to other documents, under the specific mixed use drop the clause referring to X units, clarify that the 0.5 FAR for the Harbor Bay Business Park is applicable to waterfront properties. Staff Member Thomas sought clarification regarding which properties the FAR would apply to. President Sullivan read the original language referring to Bay Edge road. Board Member Teague pointed on the map where his interpretation of shoreline properties would refer to, from the ferry terminal down to where the road turns away from the runway near the marsh. Board Member Cavanaugh seconded the motion. President Sullivan asked to see the final language when it is drafted.
