SUMMARY
Mr. Henry A. Fischer is requesting a large scale land use map amendment for a 115+/- acre tract of land
situated along Powerline Road south of Barber Street and north of CR 510 adjacent to Sebastian
Highlands Unit 11. The current land use designation for this parcel of land is R (Residential Iunit/acre
(County)), while the current zoning is A-1 (Agricultural 1 unit/5 acres). Mr. Fischer is requesting
annexation of said parcel with a land use of LDR (Low Density 5 units/acre) and corresponding zoning of
RS -10 (10,000 SF minimum lot size). The property is home to a former sand mining operation, which
created a large lake on the subject site, and is slated for subdividing to permit residential units along the
perimeter of the lake boundaries. Cross Creek is proposed to contain 150 single family residential lots
with minimum lot size of 95' x 135', thus a proposed density of 1.30 units/acre, well below the 5
units/acre permitted within the LDR category. The proposed project also includes improving Powerline
Road from Barber Street south approximately 1125 feet to the southernmost subdivision access point.
