Ordinance to Amend the Orange County <br /> Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Atlas <br /> Link to Application: <br /> https://www.orangecountVnc.gov/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/ 03082023-1719 <br /> PURPOSE: To hold a public hearing, receive the Planning Board/staff recommendation and <br /> public comment, close the public hearing, and defer action to a later date on applicant-initiated <br /> amendments to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map and Zoning Atlas to <br /> apply the Rural Buffer (RB) Land Use classification and Zoning district to a portion of a parcel <br /> (4.66 acres of an 8.14 acre parcel) that was annexed into Orange County from Chatham County <br /> in 2021 . The parcel is located at 2106 Mount Carmel Church Road (PIN: 9796-29-3144), within <br /> the Chapel Hill Township of Orange County. <br /> BACKGROUND: In January 2023, an application (Attachment 1) was received proposing to <br /> amend the Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map and the Zoning Atlas. In 2021, <br /> Session Law 2021-67 (contained in Attachment 1) annexed 4.66 acres of an 8.14 acre parcel of <br /> property into Orange County, from Chatham County. The county line had previously split the <br /> parcel, and that area already in Orange County is zoned RB and designated as Rural Buffer <br /> land use classification on the Future Land Use Map. The Staff Report in Attachment 2 contains <br /> additional information, maps, and analysis. <br /> Because this parcel is located within an area of the county subject to the Orange County — <br /> Chapel Hill — Carrboro Joint Planning Land Use Plan, all three local governments must review <br /> and approve amendments to the plan and a joint public hearing of all three elected boards must <br /> be held. This is a related action on the April 20 public hearing agenda. <br />
