18 <br /> NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of Orange <br /> County that the Town of Hillsborough/Orange County Central Orange Coordinated Area Land <br /> Use Plan and Orange County Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map are hereby amended <br /> as depicted on the attached maps. <br /> Upon motion of Commissioner seconded by Commissioner <br /> , the foregoing ordinance was adopted this day of <br /> 12020. <br /> I, Greg Wilder, Interim Clerk to the Board of Commissioners for Orange County, DO <br /> HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing is a true copy of so much of the proceedings of said <br /> Board at a meeting held on , 2020 as relates in any way to the <br /> adoption of the foregoing and that said proceedings are recorded in the minutes of the said <br /> Board. <br /> WITNESS my hand and the seal of said County, this day of , <br /> 2020. <br /> SEAL <br /> Interim Clerk to the Board of Commissioners <br /> Commissioner Price referred to the suburban style land use, and asked if this will affect <br /> the height of buildings. <br /> Tom Altieri said no, and height limitations are addressed in the County's Unified <br /> Development Ordinance (UDO). <br /> Commissioner Price said she is still concerned that staff is saying this has nothing to do <br /> with RTLP, as it clearly does in her mind. She said she is most concerned about the 12 acres <br /> being used as industrial/suburban office, etc. <br /> Tom Altieri said the recommendation is for the suburban office category, which is <br /> applicable to the COCA, and in regards to the County's FLUM, the recommendation is <br /> economic development transition. He said the two plans work together to inform any rezoning <br /> that would occur in the area. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin said these maps really illustrate a critical problem with many <br /> County maps. He said parcels are divided in different zonings and uses, and it is important to <br /> look at the boundaries of these areas and clean them up. He said every time one of these <br /> issues come up, it adds a complicating wrinkle that parcels have multiple designations on them. <br /> He said it is not fair to landowners, and it undermines the long range planning process. <br /> Commissioner McKee asked if Tom Altieri could restate his comments about agenda <br /> items "b" and "c". <br /> Tom Altieri said this set of land use amendments was originated in 2017, and this <br /> evening will conclude this process. He said if the BOCC chooses not to approve the land use <br /> amendments, it should do so not based on RTLP, but rather because it believes the area is not <br /> suitable for public water and sewer services. He said if the BOCC does approve these land use <br /> amendments, it could still make the decision to deny approval of RTLP. <br />
