The rezoning to Shoreline Residential is not entirely consistent with the <br /> City's Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, which designates <br /> these properties as Shoreline Residential near the shoreline with East <br /> Twin Lake and Rural Residential in the off-lake areas. <br /> 2. Rezoning to Rural Residential would be consistent with the City's <br /> Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map as the map designates <br /> the majority of this area as Rural Residential. <br /> 3. The Shoreline Residential zone is compatible with the zoning of the <br /> surrounding parcels, which are zoned Shoreline Residential along East <br /> Twin Lake and Rural Residential to the east of County Road 107. <br /> 4. Rezoning to Shoreline Residential does not meet the compatibility <br /> requirement of being adjacent to the Water Resource zone as neither of <br /> these properties is adjacent to East Twin Lake. The DeWolfe property <br /> (29026340113130009) is approximately 40 feet from East Twin Lake at the <br /> closest point, while the Stangler property is more than 500 feet from the <br /> lake. <br /> 5. Rezoning the two properties to Rural Residential would not be consistent <br /> with the previous zoning classification of Residential, as the minimum lot <br /> size and dimension standards would increase. <br />
