If the rezoning <br />petition is approved, the property can be developed for any land use permitted <br />within the applicable district consistent with the standards/permit processes <br />embodied within the UDO. <br />Through the MPD-CZ process, however, the County does have the opportunity to <br />impose conditions on development activities to address potential impacts. Per <br />Section 2.9.2 (F) (3) of the UDO, mutually agreed upon conditions can be <br />imposed as part this process if they address: <br />1. The compatibility of the proposed development with surrounding <br />property, <br />2. Proposed support facilities (i.e. roadways and access points, parking, <br />pedestrian and vehicular circulation systems, screening and buffer <br />areas, etc.) and/or <br />3. All other matters the County may find appropriate or the petitioner may <br />propose. <br />Development of the various parcel(s) shall only be permitted through the review <br />and approval of site plan application(s) in accordance within Section 2.5 of the <br />UDO. This is so staff can verify all imposed conditions are adhered to and allow <br />for final peer review by members of the Development Advisory Committee (DAC) <br />as detailed within Section 1.9 of the UDO. <br />3.
