However, walkability in large commercial projects is generally <br />desirable as is the ability of pedestrians to safely traverse large parking areas. Therefore, staff is suggesting that <br />some projects may be required to provide privately maintained sidewalks. <br />27 These lesser buffer requirements are in keeping with those required in the ECOD and are suggested in order to <br />provide for a more urban style of development in areas of the county served or to be served by public water and <br />sewer systems. <br />28 This language is suggested in order to ensure that any proposed "chain architecture" will blend better with the <br />surrounding area. <br />29 Please see footnoted explanations for the Efland Interstate overlay district as they apply to this section as well. <br />Orange County, North Carolina — Unified Development Ordinance Page 6 -33 <br />
