18 <br /> 1 general commercial zoning designation was considered much more appropriate, which means <br /> 2 there will potentially be a myriad of different land uses. He reminded the BOCC that this land is <br /> 3 in the commercial industrial node, as defined in the comprehensive plan; and that it has always <br /> 4 been intended for non-residential development. <br /> 5 Commissioner McKee said this rezoning does not overshadow what is already there. <br /> 6 Michael Harvey said he believed that what is being proposed is the better option than to <br /> 7 leave it as existing industrial. He said any development will go through the SUP process. <br /> 8 Commissioner Marcoplos asked if the SUP process could be described if an automotive <br /> 9 shop wanted to build on this site. <br /> 10 Michael Harvey said an automotive repair shop, in the general commercial zone, is <br /> 11 permitted by right in the table of permitted uses. He said a professional site plan would be <br /> 12 submitted for review by the Planning Department. He said there would be no review and <br /> 13 comment from an adjacent property owner, but the site plan would have to comply with all code <br /> 14 and building requirements. He said a proposal requiring a SUP permit would go through a <br /> 15 public hearing and neighborhood meeting. <br /> 16 Commissioner Marcoplos asked if the neighbors had been given this information. <br /> 17 Michael Harvey said many of these items were discussed in a broad overview at the <br /> 18 meeting he attended. <br /> 19 Commissioner Rich asked if businesses will connect to one another, once this property <br /> 20 is developed, via parking lots, roads, etc. <br /> 21 Michael Harvey said it is hard to say, but with any subdivision of commercial property, <br /> 22 any and all streets would have to be designed to the public street standard. He said it is most <br /> 23 likely that there would be one to two land uses all sharing public parking, and abiding by the <br /> 24 same landscaping standards. <br /> 25 Commissioner McKee asked if these multiple entities would have to meet Department of <br /> 26 Transportation (DOT) standards. <br /> 27 Michael Harvey said yes, as well as impervious surface limits, storm water standards, <br /> 28 land use buffers, parking, lighting, etc. <br /> 29 <br /> 30 A motion was made by Commissioner McKee, seconded by Commissioner Price to: <br /> 31 a. Adopt the proposed amendments by approving the Statement of Consistency <br /> 32 (replacement Attachment 5) and Ordinance amending the Zoning Atlas (Attachment 6). <br /> 33 <br /> 34 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 35 <br /> 36 b. Review and Amend the Orange County Housing Affordability Policy <br /> 37 The Board reviewed suggested changes from the Affordable Housing Providers and <br /> 38 considered the recommended amendments to the Orange County Housing Affordability Policy. <br /> 39 <br /> 40 Bonnie Hammersley reviewed the background information below: <br /> 41 <br /> 42 BACKGROUND: At the November 15, 2016 BOCC meeting, the Board requested that staff <br /> 43 review the County's housing affordability policy and make a recommendation to amend the <br /> 44 policy based on recent activity and input from the Affordable Housing providers. The County <br /> 45 Attorney drafted an exceptions section in the policy to provide flexibility in the affordability term <br /> 46 and the restrictive covenants as well as the addition of execution of agreement. The draft <br /> 47 exceptions section supports the BOCC action on October 4, 2016 to approve the Downtown <br /> 48 Housing Improvement Corporation, Inc.'s (DHIC) request to reduce Orange County's 99 year <br /> 49 affordability period for the Greenfield Place Project to 40 years as well as the November 15, <br /> 50 2016 action to approve the Community Home Trust (CHT) request for cancellation of a <br /> 51 declaration of restrictive covenants. <br />
