Franklin County judicial decision and 23 modify other sections to ensure consistency within the ordinance. 24 25 PRESENTER: Michael Harvey, Current Planning Supervisor 26 27 Michael Harvey said the Planning Department has been charged with consolidating the permitted uses into a single 28 table. Staff has been working to reduce three tables to one. Also, the permitted uses now have to spell out what is 29 prohibited or is allowed by right to address some court proceedings, notably Byrd v. Franklin County. The 30 interpretation of land use goes more toward free use of property than to governments ability to regulate as was 31 determined by the courts. 32 33 The new table notes whether a use is permitted by right, permitted by right with specifications, permitted only by 34 special use permit, or prohibited. 35 36 Michael Harvey is attempting to address comments from the attorney’s office, the planning director and elected 37 officials. He has been working with Orange County Attorney James Bryan. 38 39 Michael Harvey introduced the new key for the permitted use table. 40 41 Randy Marshall asked where Michael Harvey would go to for a resource to conjure up all possible uses. Michael 42 Harvey answered the revised table will focus more on central land use categories versus listing individual land uses. 43 For example you do not need 10 different ways to say retail. Retail is retail regardless of what is being sold. All your 44 need is a retail category with appropriate regulation to address potential impacts such as square footage limitations 45 on building size, prohibitions on outdoor sales. 46 47 Michael Harvey reviewed the three deleted tables and then the new table. He reviewed how to read the new table. 48 He started with agricultural uses. The only change is eliminating composting with grinding and capturing composting 49 operations as a regulatory requirement versus a separate land use. There were no questions. 50 51 13
