Craig Benedict said that presently, the County does not have an adopted commercial street <br /> classification plan, so they thought that if this provision was included, it would be referencing an <br /> unadopted plan. He would like to bring back a functional classification plan. <br /> Commissioner Yuhasz said that it is conceivable that a large property could be developed <br /> from front to back and he does not want to restrict too tightly the definition of a road that provides <br /> adequate access to one of the major transportation corridors. <br /> Public Comment <br /> None. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Foushee, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs to <br /> receive the proposed amendments to the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) as detailed in this <br /> abstract and attachments; refer the matter to the Planning Board with a request that a <br /> recommendation be retumed to the BOCC in time for the June 21, 2011 BOCC regular meeting; and <br /> adjourn the public hearing until June 21, 2011 in order to receive and accept the Planning Board's <br /> recommendation and any submitted written comments. <br /> VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> C-7. Zoning Atlas Amendment-To review a government-initiated amendment to rezone <br /> all undeveloped parcels of property north of Interstates 85/40, east of Mt. Willing Road, south of the <br /> railroad right-of-way, and west of the US 70 Connector from Rural Residential (R-1) and Agricultural <br /> Residential (AR)to Office/Institutional (O/I). Four undeveloped parcels and a portion of a fifth parcel <br /> totaling 112.35 acres are proposed to be rezoned. No project is proposed at this time. This rezoning <br /> is proposed in order to `pre-zone' the area for potential economic development projects. <br /> Craig Benedict made this PowerPoint presentation. <br /> Zoning Atlas Amendment <br /> Efland Area <br /> UDO/ZONING 2011-02 <br /> Proposed Action <br /> - Rezone 112.35 acres to Office/Institutional <br /> Current zoning: <br /> - R-1 (Rural Residential) in westem portion <br /> - AR (Agricultural Residential) in eastern portion <br /> - Eastern portion formerly designated a watershed critical area <br /> Current Land Use Categories <br /> - Commercial— Industrial Transition Activity Node (northem portion) <br /> - Agricultural Residential (formerly part of watershed critical area) <br />
