A map amendment designating a contiguous parcel as IS- V may be approved, provided that the map amendment application (and subsequent building permit applications and special vacation rental permit applications) meet the following standards, criteria and conditions: (a) The IS-V designation is consistent with the 2010 Comprehensive Plan and there is no legitimate public purpose for maintaining the existing designation. (b) The IS- V designation allowing vacation rental use does not create additional trips or other adverse traffic impacts within the remainder of the subdivision or within any adjacent IS district; (c) The parcel to be designated IS- V must contain sufficient area to prevent spot- zoning of individual parcels (i.e., rezonings should not result in spot-zoned IS- V districts or result in spot-zoned IS districts that are surrounded by IS-V districts). Unless the parcel to be rezoned contains the entire subdivision there will be a rebuttable presumption that spot-zoning exists, but the Board of County Commissioners may rebut this presumption by making specific findings supported by competent, substantial evidence that: i) the designation preserves, promotes and maintains the integrity of surrounding residential districts and overall zoning scheme or comprehensive plan for the future use of surrounding lands; ii) does not result in a small area of IS- V within a district that prohibits vacation rentals; iii) the lots or parcels to be designated IS- V are all physically contiguous and adjacent to one another and do not result in a narrow strip or isolate pockets or spots of land that are not designated IS-V, or which prohibit vacation rentals; and iv) The IS- V designation is not placed in a vacuum or a spot on a lot-by-Iot basis without regard to neighboring properties, but is a part of an overall area that allows vacation rentals or similar compatible uses.
