4 postponement of the meeting. Approximately 15 people attended the meeting and the question/comment period after staff’s presentation was light with no substantive comments made. 3. Comprehensive Plan Linkage (i.e. Principles, Goals and Objectives) Objective LU-1.1: Coordinate the location of higher intensity / high density residential and non- residential development with existing or planned locations of public transportation, commercial and community services, and adequate supporting infrastructure (i.e., water and sewer, high-speed internet access, streets, and sidewalks), while avoiding areas with protected natural and cultural resources. This could be achieved by increasing allowable densities and creating new mixed-use zoning districts where adequate public services are available. (See also Economic Development Objectives ED-2.1, ED-2.3, ED-2.10, and Water and Wastewater Objective WW-2.) Objective LU-3.7: Ensure that new development patterns in non-residential nodes encourage a clustered, walkable development pattern and discourage strip development. Objective LU-3.8: Develop a process for implementing small area plan recommendations through the revision of County policies and regulations. Objective LU-3.9: Create new zoning district(s) which allow for a mixing of commercial and residential uses, a mixing of housing types, and creates a more pedestrian friendly development pattern. New districts should be applied in areas where public services exist or are planned for in the future, in areas that promote higher intensity and high density uses on the Future Land Use map. Objective H-3.6: Work within the Orange County government system to identify and resolve existing policies which may be at odds with historic preservation goals, green building approaches, and workforce and affordable housing efforts. (See also Cultural Resources Objective CR-3 and Economic Development Objective ED-4.1.) 4. New Statutes and Rules Not applicable. 16
