5 <br /> • Parking areas are encouraged at the side or rear of buildings to leave the front accessible for <br /> pedestrian and transit systems. The 25-foot front setback also seeks to encourage building <br /> placement closer to these systems. <br /> The perimeter buffer was created for a specific purpose not directly related to entranceway <br /> issues. The Planning Staff recommends that it be reconsidered in the context of its purpose for <br /> separating incompatible uses rather than in the context of entranceway design. <br /> PROPOSED AMENDMENT: <br /> Article 3.2 Landscape Design <br /> Buffering Neighboring Uses (page 3.2.6) <br /> Well-designed landscape treatments lessen adverse visual impacts between different types of <br /> land uses, reduce noise levels, increase privacy levels and mitigate effects from fumes, glare and <br /> vibration. <br /> To create transitions between neighboring areas of differing development intensities, and <br /> separate incompatible land uses, a buffer of 100 feet in width(except where otherwise specified) <br /> is to be provided at the boundary of the Economic Development District, as well as between <br /> primary and secondary Development Areas within the Districts. The 100-foot wide buffer need <br /> not be provided when: <br /> 1 The boundary of the Orange County EDD corresponds with the-Planning jurisdiction of <br /> another local government; and <br /> 2. The land located in the planning jurisdiction of the other local government has been <br /> zoned Economic Development District and designated the same (e.g. Primary <br /> Development. Secondary Development) as the land located in the Orange o my <br /> Economic Development District; and <br /> 3. The adjoining planning jurisdiction's Economic Development District Design Manual is <br /> the same as Orange County's. <br />
