March 31 , 1967 <br /> At the March 10, 1957 public hearing, Oranoe County <br /> residents expressed confusion about notification procedures <br /> for public hearings. The Chair of the Board of Commissioners <br /> • <br /> asked that County or.dlnances be reviewed to determine if <br /> there were inconsistencies in public notification procedures. <br /> Marvin Collins conducted that review and transmitted the <br /> results of that review in a memo dated March 11 , 1967 (copy <br /> attached) . <br /> • <br /> That memo made two recommendations. The first was to <br /> establish uniformity in the ordinance amendment procedures by <br /> amending the ordinances to eliminate minor inconsistencies. <br /> The response to that recommendation in the form' of proposed <br /> amendments to the Zoning Ordinance (Article 2.3.3) and to the <br /> Subdivision Reaulatlons ( Section VIII —B) Is attached. <br /> Please note that these amendments do not address the <br /> written notification procedures in The ordinances. written <br /> notification is now required for Zoning Atlas amendments, <br /> Special Use Permits, and Variances. It Is not required for <br /> ordinance text revisions. As indicated in the memo of March <br /> . 11th, in the second recommendation, expanding notification <br /> will require a policy decision to be made. Until the olic <br /> is established, we will not know whether ordinance revisions <br /> are needed or desired. <br />
