. e Preliminary Zoning Page 16 Bayside Terrace is a stable, v iable single family neighborhood. It shows every indication of remaining as such for the forseeable future. Although there are neighborhood problems to be addressed, as noted in the street and thoroughfare section of this report, the subdivision itself should be protected and preserved. R-1 zoning with underlying Low Density land use is the appropriate means for accomplishing this end. Although the Bay Oaks Subdivision is subject to many of the problems found in Pine Bluff, it is felt that R-1 zoning with underlying Low Density land use is the most appropriate designation to be applied here. This opinion is held for the following reasons. 1. Bay Oaks is a deed restricted neighborhood and the subdivision civic association is working to bring the neighborhood back into compliance with subdivision covenants. 2. The subdivision is confined to a relatively narrow tract of land and is sandwiched between Bayside Terrace which is proposed to remain as R-1 and the City of Shoreacres which also has zoned its adjacent property for single family dwellings. After weighing these considerations, it is felt that R-1 zoning with underlying Low Density land use will best serve to maintain the character of the area and will still provide the tools necessary for an upgrading of this neighborhood's quality. A small Neighborhood Commerc ial (N. C.) zone with an underlying commercial land use designation is proposed for the area located between the southern boundary of Bayside Terrace and Bay Oaks Drive.
