The materials were deemed complete <br /> enough to start the staff review process. We do, however, have the following Staff <br /> Comments to offer. These comments should be addressed prior to the Neighborhood <br /> Information Meeting (NIM) on July 27, 2016. <br /> Current Planning Comments: <br /> 1. Please add more labels and leaders to 8' foot- tall barbed-wire fence and reference <br /> Orange County Development Ordinance (UDO) Section 5.9.6 (C)(2)(e). Also show <br /> fence detail. Also, provide leader to others boxes with text to clearly indicate the <br /> areas the text boxes are referencing. <br /> 2. Review note indicating the solar arrays will be less than 40' tall. Give true or <br /> maximum height. I do not think you are intending to build 40' tall arrays. <br /> 3. Revise stated 40' and 20' building setbacks to 100', which is what is required for <br /> non-residential uses, and solar array-public utility uses (see most updated Site Plan <br /> for non-residential use). <br /> 4. Revise the address to 6519 US Highway 70 (and not this is the location of the <br /> easement area). 6515 US Highway 70 is the adjacent lot owned by the Mace <br /> family but the subject area is not yet addressed. <br />
