9 7. Zoning Atlas Amendment In accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8 Zoning Atlas and Unified Development Ordinance Amendments of the Unified Development Ordinance, the Planning Director has initiated an amendment to the Zoning Atlas to rezone all undeveloped parcels of property north of Interstates 85/40, east of Mt. Willing Road south of the railroad right-of--way, and west of the US 70 Connector. Four undeveloped parcels and a portion of a fifth parcel totaling 112.35 acres are proposed to be rezoned. From Rural -Residential (R-1) and Agricultural Residential (AR) to Office/Institutional (O/I). The Parcel identification Numbers (PIN) of the five parcels are: 9854-07- 4304, 9854-16-1576, 9854-36-1253, 9854-05-1970, and 9854-46-6706 (partial). No project is proposed at this time. This rezoning is proposed in order to `pre-zone' the area for potential economic development projects. This is similar to what Orange County initiated within Orange County's economic development land use areas with an implementing Economic Development (ED) zorring_ district (i.e. pre-zone). The properties subject to this rezoning are currently located within the Commercial- Industrial Transition Activity Node land use category and Agricultural Residential land use category as denoted on the Land Use Element Map of the Comprehensive Plan. The portion of the parcels currently designated Agricultural Residential land use is proposed to be amended to be designated Commercial-Industrial Transition Activity Node land use by separate action (see Item #5 of this advertisement). Purpose: To review the item and receive public comment on the Zoning Atlas amendment. Substantial changes in items presented at the public hearing may be made following the receipt of comments made at the public hearing.
