Plans for County investment in water and sewer infrastructure to parcels south of <br /> Interstate 40 and in the vicinity of Old Highway 86 are underway and these UDO text <br /> amendments focus on this geographic area in conjunction with a related, separate proposed <br /> rezoning action. <br /> Attachment 1 contains additional information and analysis regarding this amendment. Proposed <br /> text amendment language can be found in Attachment 3 within a "track changes" format. <br /> Attachment 4 contains information summarizing some aspects of the proposed amendments. <br /> The map in Attachment 5 shows the extent of the Hillsborough EDD. Attachment 8 is the <br /> NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) code list; it is included because uses <br /> only in the Hillsborough EDD are regulated by NAICS sectors. Planning and Attorney's office <br /> staffs will continue to analyze the unique use of the NAICS system for permitted use <br /> consistency and changes necessary due to judicial decisions. <br />
