70 1 Extractive Use 2 Land designated to encompass operations designed primarily for the mining and quarrying of 3 those substances which are legally removable from the ground and substrata. 4 5 Agricultural Areas 6 Land which is actively being used for farming and forestry purposes and which qualify for or are 7 listed for, use value taxation purposes. 9 ^ Amendments proposed to: 10 Chapters 1, 3 through 8 11 Appendix F 12 Appendix G 13 Future Land Use Map (Title and legend only) 14 Questions? 15 16 17 Shannon Berry gave examples of the inconsistencies. The map will be referred to as the 18 Future Land Use Map of the Orange County Comprehensive Plan. She continued pointing out 19 the proposed amendments, which are incorporated by reference. 20 21 Commissioner McKee said that these housekeeping changes will make this document a 22 lot easier to understand. 23 Commissioner Gordon asked about the future land use map and pages 228 and 229. 24 She asked what it means to change "plan° to "map." She thinks that it might be more restrictive. 25 She thinks that "plan" or "element" would be a broader term. She said that it is more than just 26 cleaning up the terminology, but it is also narrowing the scope from the whole plan to the map. 27 Shannon Berry said that the proposed amendment package is supposed to differentiate 28 between the entire land use plan and the map. There are specific references to the map, and 29 when you call it just a land use plan, it does not guide someone to the map and it is confusing. 30 Commissioner Gordon said that her comment stands and there needs to be a careful 31 differentiation. She also thinks it should be in the record why it is being changed to "future" land 32 use map. 33 Shannon Berry said that when you refer to a land use map, most people construe it as 34 an existing land use map. Orange County does not have an existing land use map. Using the 35 term, Future Land Use Map, should clarify that this is part of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, 36 which is guiding development for the development. 37 Commissioner Gordon made reference to using the term, "placement." 38 Shannon Berry said that this was in reference to Appendix G, and placement is more of 39 a locational criteria. It is more a matter of where it is and not what is there. She made 40 reference to page 259, which says, "located in areas directly outside of transition and urban 41 areas." This is not really an existing land use, but it is a place. 42 Commissioner Jacobs asked about extractive use. 43 Shannon Berry said that extractive use in agricultural areas is listed in Appendix G. This 44 starts on page 263. 45 Commissioner Jacobs asked how staff is proposing going forward to deal with extractive 46 uses. Shannon Berry said that they are handled by the Unified Development Ordinance and are 47 on the Table of Permitted Uses. It would be difficult to go back and apply the uses, which is 48 why they are proposed to be deleted. 2of3
