243 of the site to adopted ordinances and plans and those that address the impacts reasonably expected to be generated from the development or use of the site. Some of the positives of the Conditional Use technique is that it permits some development flexibility while limiting impacts to surrounding properties and the process allows all interested people to know what uses(s) are permitted on a site and generally what the development will look like. 8. Please explain the MPD -CZ (Master Plan bevelopment Conditional Zoning District). The MPD -CZ is a proposed conditional zoning district that replaces many of the components of the existing PD -MU (Planned Development Mixed Use) district. This district is i ^tended primarily for mixed use developments although single Lose developments may also be considered. The MPD -CZ rezoning process requires a detailed Master Plan rather than a site plan. The Master Plan would be approved by the Board of County Commissioners (following the normal rezoning process) and future site plans for each development area within the overall development would be reviewed and approved by staff. Site plans have to be consistent with the approved Master Plan but certain adjustments are permitted (see Section 6.7.2 of the UDO for the list of permitted adjustments). One of the positives of this conditional zoning district is that it provides reasonable certainty regarding uses on the site but permits some flexibility to address changing market conditions. 9. Is the existing development review process being changed? No. The existing processes are substantially intact. The changes that are demarcated in Article 2 (Procedures) are primarily to be clearer about existing processes and requirements because some of the existing regulations were not as detailed or clear as they could be. This has been especially true of Board of Adjustment proceedings and the applications upon which the Board of Adjustment acts (Class B Special Use Permits and Variances); therefore, there is quite a bit of added text regarding these procedures. In one case, the review process is becoming simpler. Zoning Compliance Permits for single - family residential uses outside of the University Lake Watershed would now be required to submit only a Plot Plan rather than a more detailed Site Plan. 10.1 want to subdivide my land to allow my children to build homes here in Orange County. How does the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) affect my plans? The LIDO does not change the existing subdivision processes. In the case of Minor subdivisions (those creating five or fewer lots), language has been added to the UDO to be clearer about the application requirements and the review process (Section 2.14). In regards to Exempt subdivisions (those creating lots greater than 10 acres in size), language has been added to the UDO to more clearly articulate the procedure (Section 2.13).
