1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: December 13, 2016 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. 5-a <br /> SUBJECT: Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Amendments — Hillsborough Economic <br /> Development District <br /> DEPARTMENT: Planning and Inspections <br /> ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: (919) <br /> 1. Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Perdita Holtz, Planner III, 245-2578 <br /> Ordinance (UDO) Amendment Outline Form Craig Benedict, Director, 245-2575 <br /> 2. Statement of Consistency <br /> 3. Proposed Ordinance —As Presented at <br /> November 1, 2016 BOCC Meeting <br /> 4. Proposed Ordinance — Only Substantive <br /> Revisions to the Table of Permitted Uses are <br /> for Residential Uses <br /> 5. Uses for EDH Districts —To be Incorporated <br /> into Table of Permitted Uses Reorganization <br /> Work in 2017 <br /> PURPOSE: To conduct a continued public hearing and consider action on government-initiated <br /> amendments to the text of the UDO that would modify some development standards, types of <br /> permitted uses, and use standards within the Hillsborough Economic Development District <br /> (EDD). <br /> Consistent with the advice previously provided to the BOCC by the County Attorney, the BOCC <br /> has several options to move this item forward: <br /> 1. Proceed without additional changes. This option would adopt the amendments as <br /> presented at the November 1, 2016 BOCC meeting (as depicted in Attachment 3). <br /> 2. Adopt the amendments and delay the effective date. The proposed amendments can <br /> be considered and adopted but delayed until the newly listed land use categories are <br /> applied to the remaining zoning districts. Staff is already working on a revised Table of <br /> Permitted Uses but completion is not anticipated until the September 2017 QPH. This <br /> option will require a continuance to allow staff to prepare appropriate documentation. <br /> 3. Adopt the amendments regarding residential use restrictions only and continue <br /> the public hearing regarding the proposed new EDD uses to the February 2017 <br /> Quarterly Public Hearing. This option is available, but rather than continue the hearing <br /> on the proposed new EDD uses, it would be cleaner and less confusing to simply omit <br /> the proposed new EDD uses at this time and instruct staff to advertise them for the <br /> February Quarterly Public Hearing. <br />
