(It is noteworthy that principal <br /> amendments in recent years have been heard at hearings that were not in February,such as the land use <br /> classification change in the Efland-Mebane corridor where Morinaga's factory is now located,which was heard at a <br /> May QPH). <br /> 15 The Staff Attorney has recommended deletion of this provision due to concerns over who determines <br /> compliance with a small area plan and how compliance is determined. <br /> 16 The Staff Attorney has recommended deletion of this provision because of the modification made in (D). If the <br /> modification in (D) is not made,the language of(E)should be modified because of the concern that a restriction on <br /> a rezoning application has been placed in the Comprehensive Plan amendment section. <br /> Orange County, North Carolina—Unified Development Ordinance Page 2-7 <br />
