1 Commissioner Pelissier made reference to page 6-125(9) and asked about the natural 2 materials in greenways or hiking trails. Craig Benedict said that under the revised code, the 3 suggestion is that material can be put into the stream buffer, but it would have to be mulch or 4 some other material. It could not be paved or concrete. 5 Commissioner Gordon made reference to page 6-168(B), Requirements of 6 Environmental Assessment. She said that this was lacking in detail and there should be more 7 description here about what should be in the document. 8 The Board agreed to flag this. 9 Commissioner Gordon asked that the first time a term is used that it should be spelled 10 out, then the abbreviation can be used. 11 Commissioner Yuhasz made reference to page 6-121 (A)(2 and 3), and said that the 12 500-year floodplain is only a small horizontal distance away from the 100-year floodplain. This 13 is saying that if there is a floodplain, the buffer would be the 500-year floodplain. He wonders if 14 this is what they should do here. 15 Craig Benedict said that he would find out the justification for this. 16 Commissioner Gordon made reference to page 6-185, Section 6.19.5(B), and said that 17 she would like the second sentence to read, "the rezoning of the property or approval of the 18 master plan shall provide no indication as to whether the CAPS will be issued. The application 19 for rezoning or master plan approval shall contain a statement to this effect." 20 John Roberts made reference to page 6-102 and said that he researched some of this 21 earlier and the size of political signs cannot be limited more than other types of signs. The 16 22 square feet would be unconstitutional. Also, the seven-day removal is unconstitutional. 23 The Board agreed to use 21 days for political sign removal. 24 Commissioner Jacobs suggested that the County Attorney get with the Planning staff 25 and come back with something reasonable for political signs in residential areas. 26 27 Article 7 28 Commissioner Jacobs made reference to page 7-1(A)(6) and said that it should say 29 "ensure" and not "insure." Also, it should say, "are safe" and not "be safe." Also, #1 should say 30 "ensure". 31 Commissioner Jacobs made reference to page 7-4 and asked what happened if an 32 existing subdivision were expanded and if the lots would count in the 21-40 lots or 21-79 lots. 33 Michael Harvey made reference to page 7-4, Section 7.2.2 and said that with a minor 34 subdivision, five lots could be created two times, and anything over 10 lots would require a 35 public road. 36 Commissioner Jacobs made reference to page 7-8 and said that Homeowners 37 Association should be without an apostrophe, but Property Owners' Association should be `s' 38 apostrophe. 39 Commissioner Jacobs made reference to page 7-11(C)(3) and "identified environmental 40 features." He asked if this was synonymous with "Inventory of Sites of Cultural, Historic, 41 Recreational, Biological, and Geological Significance in the Unincorporated Portions of Orange 42 County," which is spelled out on page 7-13. He said that if this is the first reference, then it 43 should be spelled out. 44 Craig Benedict said that he was not including cultural features or historic features in the 45 first statement, but only environmental features. He said that he would put new language in 46 there about "significant environmental and cultural features." 47 Commissioner Gordon said that environmental features and cultural features should not 48 be put together. Craig Benedict agreed. 49 Commissioner Yuhasz asked if these development agreements were intended to 50 maintain these requirements regardless of general changes to the zoning ordinance. \
