§ 22.10.060. Conversion plans.

For any land division that is submitted in phases of development or that does not meet the minimum density requirements of Section 22.10.050A, and for any development where sewer is not available, the approval shall be contingent upon the following:

A.

The lots created by the land division for residential and associated uses (e.g., dwelling units; private community clubs and recreation areas; stormwater detention, treatment and infiltration) shall meet the applicable requirements of Section 22.10.050.

B.

A conversion plan must be submitted for the entire property which demonstrates that the property can be subsequently subdivided to create sufficient lots to achieve the minimum densities necessary to comply with Section 22.10.050. Such conversion plan shall depict a schematic lot layout, approximate location of utility easements, and potential street access and an internal circulation system consistent with county transportation policies. Conversion plans shall not be required to be stamped by an engineer or surveyor, and may be included as part of a drawing or plan submitted for the land division application. The applicant shall make a notation on the face of the plat providing notice of the special density requirements relating to the property. This conversion plan will not bind future phases of development of the site to anything except the obligation to meet the overall density requirements of the entire property. Acceptance of a conversion plan by the county does not, by itself, constitute approval of, nor the granting of vested rights to, a future phase of development. (Note: The purpose of the conversion plan is to ensure that the entire property can be ultimately developed at the residential densities required for this zone district, not to limit future development to a specified development scheme. Recognizing that some property subject to this requirement may not be redeveloped in the near future, the time and cost involved in preparing and obtaining approval of a conversion plan should be kept to a minimum.)
