See Section 5.3.2(C) for standards for uses <br />requiring a Class A Special Use Permit.39 <br /> <br />39 In order to promote economic development opportunities in the Hillsborough EDD, Staff is suggesting deletion <br />of language that requires a Class A Special Use Permit for projects above a certain size. However, in keeping with <br />how the EDH general use zoning districts operate, staff is suggesting that a MPD-CZ project within the Hillsborough <br />EDD be required to obtain a Class A Special Use Permit if any nonresidential use located within 200-feet of existing <br />dwellings on smaller sized lots. <br /> 55
