The Final Draft states: "The Urban Estate classification is intended to allow for choices of very low density and large -lot housing in the community, and to provide a physical transition between urban development and rural/open lands. Most of the undeveloped areas designated for residential development in the Sub Area Plan are classified as Urban Estate areas, that will have a maximum allowable density of two (2) dwelling units per acre. These areas provide for a transition between the higher intensity commercial and industrial uses located adjacent to the 1-25 highway and a larger lot residential development (2 1/2 acre lots) east of County Road 5.
