Open <br />burning of trees, limbs, stumps, and/or construction debris associated with the permitted <br />activity is expressly prohibited. <br />(E) No building, structure, or zoning lot for which a Zoning Compliance Permit has been <br />issued shall be used or occupied until the Building Inspector has, after final inspection, <br />issued a Certificate of Occupancy indicating compliance with all the provisions of this <br />Ordinance. <br />(F) No building, structure, or zoning lot for which a Zoning Compliance Permit has been <br />issued shall be used or occupied until the Orange County Health Department has <br />approved the water supply and sewage disposal systems serving that use. <br />(G) Issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy by the Building Official or the approval of a water <br />supply and sewage disposal system by the Health Department shall in no case be <br />construed as waiving any provision of this Ordinance. <br />(H) Zoning Compliance Permits shall become null and void after 18 months from the date of <br />issuance if a building permit is not applied for or land disturbing activities are not <br />commenced in accordance with the provisions of this Ordinance. <br />2.4.3 Plot Plan Specifications <br />(A) For development types requiring a plot plan rather than a site plan, the plot plan shall <br />contain the following: <br />(1) A scaled drawing denoting the length of all property lines, <br />(2) A north arrow denoting the orientation of the lot and all proposed structures, <br />(3) The location of all existing structures, driveways, and areas of impervious <br />surface1, <br />(4) The location of the proposed structure(s) and distances from all property lines, <br />(5) The location of the proposed driveway, <br />(6) The location of the proposed septic system and proposed drain lines on the <br />property, <br />(7) The location of the proposed well, and <br />(8) The location of any protected features on the property (i.e. stream buffers, flood <br />plain, wetlands, etc)., and <br />(9) The location and dimensions of proposed parking areas. <br />1 Staff recommends adding this language to the requirements for a plot plan. This section seems to have been <br />written only with new construction in mind. However, denoting the location of these items has always been asked <br />by staff or else impervious surface could not be calculated for a lot. Additionally, some structure types are <br />required by the building code to be a certain distance from other structures so without the information on the plot <br />plan, it would be impossible for staff to determine compliance. <br />39
