<br />STATEMENT OF CONSISTENCY <br />OF A PROPOSED UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT <br />WITH THE ADOPTED ORANGE COUNTY 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br /> <br /> Orange County has initiated an amendment to the Unified Development Ordinance <br />(UDO) to modify mailed notification requirements. <br /> <br />The Planning Board finds: <br />a. The requirements of Section 2.8 of the UDO have been deemed complete; and, <br />b. Pursuant to Sections 1.1.5, and 1.1.7 of the UDO and to Section 153A-341 of the <br />North Carolina General Statutes, the Board finds sufficient documentation within <br />the record denoting that the amendment is consistent with the adopted 2030 <br />Comprehensive Plan. <br />1. The amendment is consistent with applicable plans because it supports the <br />following 2030 Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives: <br />Land Use Goal 6: A land use planning process that is transparent, fair, <br />open, efficient, and responsive. <br />c. The amendment is reasonable and in the public interest because it: <br />1. Corrects inadvertent omissions in amendments adopted on November 5, <br />2015. <br />2. Provides consistency in mailed notification requirements among the various <br />types of review procedures that require mailed notification, thereby <br />minimizing potential confusion. <br /> <br />The Planning Board of Orange County hereby recommends that the Board of County <br />Commissioners consider adoption of the proposed UDO text amendment. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />______________________ ________________________ <br />Chair Date <br /> <br /> <br />Attachment 2 <br /> 19
