executive session, Davis concluded that Goode’s proposed subdivision “substantially complies with the Rappahannock County Comprehensive Land Use Plan as embodied in, (a) Rappahannock County Subdivision Ordinance of 1973; (b) Rappahannock County Zoning Ordinance of 1973; and (c) Soil, Erosion and Sedimentation Ordinance of 1975 ... It further appears that the proposed Subdivision will not adversely affect or damage the public health, safety, and general welfare of persons visiting or residing in Rappahannock County.”
Davis quotes a letter dated February 27, 1978, from “Rosser H. Payne, Jr., A.l.P. land planning and rezoning expert,” after an on-site inspection, examination of Goode’s rezoning and subdivision application, and "careful review of local ordinances.” In the letter, Payne reports that the 73.9 acre tract has an average slope of less than 10 percent overall with individual lot slope average ranging between 6 percent to 13 percent for an average of between 7 percent and 12 percent overall. Payne also notes that no development was proposed within the confines of the Jordan River floodplain and no proposed house or drainfield location was within 100 feet from the floodplain limits.
As part of his memorandum, Davis included a resolution approving the final site plan for Mountin Slopes subdivision and an amendment to the county zoning ordinance, rezoning Goode's property to residential subdivision.)
