“All right. And it started, I don't know if you can remember, I think it started like 150 or something like that. Yes, sir. And so we worked, well, not we, but it was worked down to about 95. Yes, sir. And we denied it. And then there was another case not tied to it, but came at about the same time. Can you remember anything about that case?”

“So, but we denied that too. Yes, sir. And one of the things that I remember out of the conversation was some of this land was A1. So we knew that the possibility of the developer coming back and wanting to develop some of it as A1 was real. is permitted, I guess. So what's the, how many units could we get on the A1 now?”
Board of Supervisors · Sep 8, 2026

“If you just look at what is A1 already, it's 26 acres. I think we did a rough estimation of somewhere between 30 and 40 lots. For the A1 and if the C1 became A1.”

“So what's the... So applicant, get ready because I'm going to ask you how many units could be put on the A1 alone, not considering the C1. Can you or Ben or somebody tell me about the I guess one of the things that staff has brought to my attention is the line that was drawn for C-1. There's some story or history behind that line. And I think staff believes that that line, there is not documentation. I mean, it cannot be. There is some question about its validity as a true line. drawing for conservation?”

“So I think when we met, we talked. You said the front looks like it perks, the back doesn't. And so the A1 side of it, let's say, take the C1 out of consideration. How many units do you think you'll get on the A1?”

“Right. So if we're rezoned and it becomes A1, then it comes back to you for plan of development, and then you follow the FEMA rules about what can be – developed on and what can't based upon this piece. Yeah. You're saying right now what you've seen, you're saying a lot of it is not on. Based on the current flood maps, yeah, it's not in the. So when you say a lot, you mean what, 75%?”
