Michael Harvey said that is a permitted use, but it is unknown at this time if one will be developed.

Settlers Point Master Plan Development Conditional Zoning Overall Site & Buffer Plan (map) Master Planning Approach Advantages • The approach of the design for Settlers Point is to view this area with a broad perspective for the best use of the property with respect to the health, safety and welfare of the public and the Economic Growth of the County. • By assembling 10 parcels together and treating them as one single parcel, the Settlers Point project provides a higher quality of development than if each parcel was developed individually. • This approach provides a comprehensive design for the development standards of Transportation/Access Management, Erosion Control, Stormwater Management, Stream Buffer Protection, Flood Prevention and Open Space areas. • Transportation Impact Benefits of Master Planning: o Current County regulations only require a Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) if proposed traffic trips for a single land use exceed 800 trips per day. o Settlers Point is currently providing a TIA for the overall Master Plan and is also proposing to require a TIA for each Site Plan approval for the project as it is developed, regardless of the proposed number of daily trips. This will ensure a continued evaluation of the traffic devices and improvements needed for the area. o Under current regulations you would have 10 individual parcels developed independently from one another with little or no authority to promote connectivity or universal traffic improvements. Proposed Land Uses • The proposed Land Uses for the project are consistent with what the County has identified as being permitted within the MPD-CZ Zoning District and in accordance with Section 5.2.3 of the UDO. • With respect to expanding acceptable land uses within this area of Orange County, the proposed land uses are consistent with the direction provided to planning staff by elected officials and the Planning Board.
