                       depicts  1,087  total  lots, including  1,032  single-family  residence  lots,  three  multi-
                       family residence lots developed with  188  detached single-family residence
                       condominium units, 17 open space lots, one public park lot, five private recreation
                       lots, one public school lot, 12 debris basin lots, two water tank lots, one booster
                       station lot and 13 private drive and fire lane lots on 2,173.25 acres.


               15.     Staff received public comments from the public with questions regarding the scope
                       of changes and whether or not roads would connect with existing neighborhoods.


               16.     On November 7,  2017, the  Hearing Officer  heard a presentation from staff  and
                       testimony from the applicant.


               17.     During the  November 7,  2017 public  hearing, the  Hearing Officer  heard a
                       presentation from staff and testimony from the applicant.

               18.     Staff and the applicant were available for questioning.

               19.     The Hearing Officer moved to act on the applicant’s request after confirming there
                       were no other speakers.


               20.     The Hearing Officer finds that the requested adjustments to the configuration of lots
                       are acceptable in that they are a reduction in originally approved overall lots by 40
                       fewer single-family total units.
