The schedule of <br /> buffers is such that no buffers are required of most sub- <br /> divisions. No buffers are required between Land uses with <br /> lot sizes of 40,000 square feet or larger. Both previous and <br /> current zoning in the rural buffer required lots larger than <br /> 40,000 square feet . So few lots smaller than that exist and <br /> none can now be created. Within the schedule of buffers such <br /> land uses are considered compatible and no buffer is re- <br /> quired. Some buffers are required along streets and utili- <br /> ties. Similarly, very little development that would come <br /> under the landscape and screening. requirements in the Zoning <br /> Ordinance is occurring in the rural buffer, so the <br /> application of those requirements is limited. _ <br /> References <br /> Orange' County Subdivision Ordinance, Section IV—B-8. <br /> Orange County Zoning Ordinance, Article 12. <br /> • <br /> • <br />
