Dur~ng that amendment process, the Rural Developing Bulk <br />Standards erroneously reverted back to the old standards with regard to lot size, lot width, and <br />setbacks. Staff has drafted an ordinance that will correct the lot size, lot width, and setbacks for <br />the R-l Rural Developing bulk 'standards. Staffalso noticed that when the R-l Rural Developing <br />bulk standards were amended to require lot clustering, the maximum number of driveways was <br />reduced fi'om two to one per street frontage. This is logical for all lots created under the new <br />standards, which would be similar in size to urban lots. However, most of the existing properties <br />in the R ural Developing district are at least an acre in size and thus, staff has also revised the <br />bulk. standards to specify that clustered lots are limited to one driveway per street frontage but <br />that all cxisting (non-clustered) lots are limited to two driveways.
