WHEREAS, the originally approved Preliminary Plan for Sun Valley, Tract 4064, first submitted
in August, 1988, was approved by the Board of Supervisors on December 5, 1988, per P&ZC Resolution
No. 88-172. The rezoning of the subdivision was approved on the same date per P&ZC Resolution No. 88-
173. A revised Preliminary Plan was approved by the Board on May I, 1991, per BOS Resolution No. 91-
118. The subdivision was proposed in two phases. The zoning for the subdivision (per P&ZC Resolution
No. 88-173) was amended on December 3,1991, per BOS Resolution No. 91-310. The Final Plat for Phase
A was approved by the Board on November 4, 1991, per BOS Resolution No. 91-273. Phase A was

Preliminary Plan was submitted in December, 1996. Including the recorded phase, the revised Preliminary

15 labeled utility and/or drainage easement parcels, and several unlabeled drainage easements. The
minimum residential lot size proposed is 7,150 square feet. This revised Preliminary Plan deletes the

approved, all of which are located in Block 24 in the northwest corner of the development. Some roadway
redesign is included in this revised plan. Due to the addition of lots, an amendment to BOS Resolution 91-

of the required proposed zoning maps from the project engineer the updated zoning proposal for the
unrecorded portions of Sun Valley, Tract 4064, will be scheduled for consideration by the Planning and
