1 1 f <br />~~ <br />X41.3 especially when it is Already there. Thirdly, just from a practical paint of view, this is already a very complicated dacun~enfi and fio <br />41.4 keep restating things that mean the same thing over and over buT using different language just makes it more complicated. I feel <br />415 like, though I missed the public hearing, that a lot of times the public doesn't have the big picture as far they focus an one little <br />41. ~ thing. Yes, this language is missing fram the Conditional Use section in the new UDO but they missed that link to the <br />417 Comprehensive Plan. They maybe didn't understand the difference in applying it comprehensively and rather than try to <br />41 a piecemeal it into different sections. That's my reasoning behind my motion and why I think we should reject adding this language <br />419 though I appreciate staff rushing to put this together. <br />420 <br />421 Brian Crawford; is the motion seconded that the staff suggestions to revise the language be rejected? Any further discussion? <br />422 <br />423 I~o7~o~. Samantha Gabe moved that the Planning Board reject the inclusion of the language that's suggested 'rn Attachment 1 <br />424 and Attachment 4 of the Preamble to the Post Quarterly Hearing UDO Planning Board Meeting and naT recommend these <br />425 changes To the UDO. Seconded by Alan Campbell. <br />426 ~o~~. Unanimous <br />427 <br />42O Craig Benedict: That's great progress, thank you very much. Item 2 on the Preamble to the Post Quarterly Hearing UDO <br />429 Planning Board Meeting has to do with Conditional Districts buT a Upecifc typo of Conditional District and that is Master Planned <br />430 Developments also known as MPD-CZ. There was concern expressed by the public and a Commissioner that these Master <br />431 Planned Development are typically larger scale and there is some unknowns in there. because you do not see final site plans. <br />432 They maybe mare appropriate in some of the urban sections of the County, urban transition areas as we call them, economic <br />433 development zones, commercial industrial Hades, and less appropriate for the rural areas of the Gaunty. Just to recap, there are <br />434 roughly two categories under Conditional District; Conditional Use, we're still suggesting that Conditional Use Districts can be <br />435 used in the rural areas of the County, and of course they can be used in the urban areas. Conditional Use Districts, there's a lot <br />436 afthem thatcannot be asked far there were 31 exclusions and there was another4g commercial and industrial uses that are not <br />437 allowed in this green area oaf fie Orange Caunfy Land Use ~lap~ if there is a critical area ar protected area fram University Lake. <br />43 o There are ~a further exclusions from Conditional Use Districts in those purple areas. Conditional Use can still be requested in <br />439 these areas. vtiChaT we're suggesting where these MPDs, which do not include a site plan and do noT include a Special Use <br />440 Permit, that at least in Phase 1 they be linked to our urban county areas where there is the intention of public water and sewer <br />441 and also in our staff recommendation that they be in other higher intensity land use areas such as our Rural Activity Nodes or <br />442 rural Hades. If there's not going To be public water and sewer in those rural nodes but we think there is some consistency With <br />443 the intention in our minimal rural activity areas ~pafnted out an t.and Use Map} that MPD-CZs could still be allowed in those rural <br />444 nodes and. all of the urbanizing areas. <br />445 <br />446 Judith ~legner; ~Ihat you gave us only references, does not reference the smaller ones it's only the larger ones. It says Rural <br />44? Activity Nodes. <br />44~ <br />449 Tom Altieri: That encampasseshoth. <br />450 <br />451 Judith ~legner: Gould you refer to what is the difFerence beTween community and neighborhood? <br />452 <br />453 Michael Harvey, Typically, the answer to that question is size, bath rural neighborhood and rural community activity nodes allow <br />454 for LC-1 and NC-Z zoning designations, <br />455 . <br />456 Judith ~legner; I thought that was about scale of development and the compilation patterns there so I don't understand why the <br />457 smaller~sense of these... I'd prefer to split it at the larger ones if this is a first phase implementation, i think the smaller ones need <br />45~ To be Thought though with those communities mare,,.. <br />459 <br />460 Graig Benedict: That's acceptable. <br />461 <br />462 Judith v~egner; So what would the terminology be then compared to what you have here as rural.... <br />463 <br />464 Craig Benedict: Rural Community Node. <br />465 <br />466 Samantha Cabe: I'm missing something here, da all the standards that go along with the different, for example the acreage that <br />467 can be zoned as commercial would within a Rural Activity Node, is all of that disregarded When someone applies for an MPD- <br />46~ GZ? <br />469 <br />470 Craig Benedict; Yes, there is a limitation in at least the vUhife Gross Node, Rural Community Node, as 10 acres now as allowed <br />471 of NC-~ and 1 Q acres of l.G-1. There was when we passed that new ordinance we said if by legislatively and somebody asked <br /> <br />
