Pre - zoning for Economic Development Projects: Continue to "prezone" areas where possible to focus growth in appropriate areas with consistent land uses, thereby improving the review and approval process. 5. Nuisance Ordinance: Consider a nuisance ordinance addressing junked cars and unkempt property (old tires, etc.) for Economic Development, Commercial, and Commercial - Industrial Transition Activity' Nodes and areas adjacent to these land use classifications to "protect" these areas slated for economic development projects. In addition, consider these "city -like" rules in "urban" transition land use classifications of the county to protect existing community value. 6. Transportation Issues: Evaluate the need for better public transit in rural areas, including senior citizen mobility, transit dependent and commuter populations. Determine if rural "transit oriented development" could be hubs of transit located in the rural community nodes. Accent focus on transit dependent populations and their connection to other transit infrastructure. 7. Wireless and Broadband Access: The County (IT Department) is currently undertaking a study regarding wireless and broadband access in rural areas. Many rural areas lack reliable access to these services and solutions to providing areas with these services should be sought. Coordinate with EMS for comingled use of towers for public safety, private use (with revenue), and public wireless augmentation. 8. Long -Term Planning for Potable Water and Waste Disposal: Planning for potable water and waste (wastewater and solid waste) should continue to be a topic for study (i.e., supportive infrastructure analysis) and discussion as growth in Orange County continues.
