Attachment 2 281 UDO Amendment Packet Notes Planning staff was tasked with the following: Propose amendments to the UDO that will more strongly encourage quality, non - residential development in the EDDs while balancing any adverse impacts to adjacent properties and the environment. Ensure the amendments work within the overall framework of the UDO and how Orange County regulates development but do not propose changes to the Table of Permitted Uses (Section 5.2) at this time. The following amendment package seeks to achieve the stated task. Since the number of affected pages is rather extensive, staff has divided the proposed amendments into three basic, color -coded types: Green text: Clean -up or housekeeping types of amendments. Do not change existing regulations. Orange text: Minor amendments but more substantive than a "housekeeping" item. May change existing regulations slightly or may be a clarifying addition to the regulations. Some may have the potential to slightly change the way some people might interpret a regulation. Red text: Substantive change from existing regulations. With one exception, only pages of the UDO with a proposed change are included in the packet. The one exception is where a page needed to be included in order to be clear about which section of the UDO was proposed for amendment. Additionally, there is at least one instance where Word automatically broke a footnote across two pages, so if a footnote seems to end mid - sentence, please check the bottom of the next page. Please note that the page numbers in this amendment packet may or may not correspond to the page numbers in the adopted UDO because adding text may shift all of the text/sections downward. You are encouraged to review this amendment packet in the context of having your complete UDO available for referencing as needed. Every change has a footnote that provides a brief rationale or reason for the proposed change.
