Community need has not been demonstrated for the single family development proposed since multiple family housing is specifically identified within the Town's General Plan as a needed use within the Town while single family housing is not. Final Development Plan - Major Subdivision: The proposed subdivision does not substantial conformance with the goals and policies of the General Plan since the development would not result in the preservation of the limited areas within the Town planned for multiple family development. The design of the proposed subdivision is not in substantial conformance with the applicable zoning regulations as the underlying General Plan land use designation allows for a maximum of 29 units per acre while the subject application proposes a density of only 12 units per acre. There are a limited number of sites within the Town which are appropriate for multiple family development. The proposed development would set a precedent to allow other properties with a multiple family land use designation within the area and within in the Town to develop with a single family housing product rather than a multiple family housing product. The subject site's proximity to the downtown area and adjacent commercial properties make the subject site ideal for higher density multiple family development rather than the single family housing product which is proposed.
