04 (B) The geographic area covered by the Efland Interstate Overlay District is part of the Efland- Mebane Small Area Plan, adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on June 27, 2006, which outlines acceptable levels of development within the study area, including allowing for additional non - residential and residential development in this overlay district. (C) Standards are established in Section 6.6.3 in order to maintain and enhance the economic vitality of the area while protecting existing land uses. Unless otherwise stated, the standards are in addition to standards contained in this Ordinance, including Sections 6.2 (Lot and Building Standards), 6.5 (Architectural Design Standards) and 6.6.5 (Major Transportation Corridor)9 4.5.2 Applicability (A) This district is intended for all properties located south of the railroad tracks and north of Interstate 85/40 in the general vicinity of Mount Willing Road in accordance with the boundaries shown on the Orange County Zoning Atlas.'o (B) The requirements of this Ordinance pertaining to the Efland Interstate Overlay District apply to all residential and non - residential land uses and developments in the designated district except for detached single - family residential land uses and developments. 4.5.3 Permitted Uses and Dimensional and Ratio Standards (A) Within the Efland Interstate Overlay District, uses of land and structures and Dimensional and Ratio Standards are those permitted in the underlying zoning district or districts. All other requirements for the use of land and structures contained in this Ordinance shall be met unless otherwise provided. (B) Minimum Setbacks (1) The minimum side and rear setback shall be with width of the required buffer in 6.6.3(B) or the setback required in Article 3 or Section 6.2.8, whichever is less, except as provided in (a).' (a) For parcels subject to the setback and yard requirements in Section 4.7.4, the requirements of said Section shall apply. 12 (2) Where applicable, the front yard setback shall be measured from any future right - of -way as designated on the Orange County Thoroughfare Plan. 4.6.1 Intent (A) The Efland Village Overlay District is established to provide for an urban village style of development in an area of the county served, or intended to be served, by public water and sewer systems. 9 This Section is currently 6.6.3 but will be renumbered to 6.6.5 as part of this amendment because Standards for the two proposed new overlay districts will be inserted into the UDO as 6.6.3 and 6.6.4. 10 The geographic area is also the area currently designated as Commercial - Industrial Transition Activity Node ( CITAN) on the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan. However, staff believes it is prudent to reference only the Zoning Atlas for the boundary in case the boundaries of the CITAN are ever changed. This is because the boundaries of the zoning overlay district would not necessarily change just because a land use category boundary change is made; a change to the zoning overlay district boundary will require an amendment to the Zoning Atlas. " A lessening of setbacks is suggested in order to allow for a more urban style of development (e.g., building closer together and /or more density). 12 Clearly stating that the Major Transportation Corridor (MTC) requirements will still apply.
