Moreover, the proposed amendment allows more intensive residential development in an area that is under served by building types that are allowed within the Medium Density Residential designation. The Residential Lands and Housing Study estimations of the long term projected land needs, and the determination that there is an adequate inventory, serve to demonstrate that the minimum needs have been met. The proposal adds to the supply of Medium Density Residential and Commercial inventories without significantly affecting the supply of Low Density Residential land. In smnmary, based on the excess supply of residential land and the relatively small amount of acreage involved in this application, our analysis finds that the applicant's plan amendment proposal meets the requirements of state\\ide planning Goal 10, and supports applicable adopted policies. Please refer to discussion regarding Goal 9-Economy and the J\!etro Plan discussion of the policies of the Residential Land Use and Housing Element.
