Comments on conformity with the Comprehensive Plan will be provided to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors as part of the staff report. The subject property, TMP 56A2-01-62, is located within the Crozet Master Plan Area. The applicant's request to amend the mixture of building types - such that the required percentage of single family detached units is reduced from 50% to 40% - is consistent with the recommendations of the Master Plan as well as the "Mixture of Housing Types and Affordability" Neighborhood Model Principles. Regarding affordability, the project narrative states that one of the reasons for this rezoning request is to allow the construction of affordable dwelling units within the development. This purpose furthers the recommendations of the Master Plan by increasing the stock of affordable housing units in Albemarle County. No change to the underlying zoning district or maximum allowable density are requested with this application. C.
