A 2.77 acre tract is proposed <br />with a 10,000 square foot leased area and an additional area designated as a fall zone easement. The property is <br />zoned Rural Buffer and University Lake Protected Watershed. The applicant is requesting a Class A Special Use <br />Permit under Article 8.8.17a of the Orange County Zoning Ordinance to construct a 230 foot telecommunication tower. <br />The application was presented at a joint public hearing before the Orange County Board of County Commissioners and <br />the Orange County Planning Board on August 24, 1998. The public hearing was resumed at the November 17, 1998, <br />Board of County Commissioners meeting. The administration recommends that the Board of County Commissioners <br />deny the Class A Special Use Permit per the Planning Board recommendation.
