25 DRAFT 983 Charity Kirk: Would there be specific suggestions, or would that be a whole new phase once the 984 comprehensive plan is updated? 985 986 Leigh Anne King: What we typically do as part of comprehensive land use planning efforts is to provide 987 recommendations for, generally speaking, the types of changes that we would recommend 988 incorporating into a cod update process. That being said, one half of our business is doing plans. 989 The other practice area of ours is doing actual ordinance work. And what we know from doing 990 that is it's very important for the plan to not hamstring and get too specific about the ordinance 991 changes that need to be made, until you actually have the time to go in and work within the 992 framework of assessment for the code itself. So,we are looking at the code and we are making 993 some suggestions based on what's in the code. But we're not going to be making provision 994 change recommendations in the plan. We want that to happen as part of a code update process. 995 996 Beth Bronson: Charity, to your point about that designation of zoning,what it reminds me of is those 997 neighborhood activity nodes that we looked at in White Cross where they were trying to present, 998 because there is set out designations for zoning that are in the LIDO as a result of the original 999 comprehensive plan, if I am understanding that correctly.And so, on the map, in the community 1000 engagement what I did notice with those,there was no focus on those areas. So,you're talking 1001 about those interchanges, those points of connection. Where people are commuting by,where 1002 you're getting the most drive by of the residents,you have the most opportunity for something like 1003 retail versus manufacturing. If, per se,there was something in the LIDO eventually based on the 1004 policy recommendations and the comprehensive plan that said,this area is good as an overlay 1005 district for conservation neighborhoods or, rural agricultural or certain things like that or certain 1006 types of businesses such as, low impact, like dog kennel kind of things. Right?That idea being 1007 that, if you identify those areas in the County where we would encourage commercial versus 1008 residential development, but also holistically together in Northern Orange County or in, Southern 1009 Orange County, I guess. Is that kind of what you're talking about? 1010 1011 Charity Kirk: I mean, she answered my question. I felt satisfied with her answer. 1012 1013 Beth Bronson: I guess, I will just add that having more specifics like that,where you're not hamstringing the policy 1014 that could be made, but you are also saying that these areas that previously been identified,these 1015 will be expanded or better defined?And not just based on a radius of an intersection. 1016 1017 Adam Beeman: Any other questions? 1018 1019 Leigh Anne King: Thank you. 1020 1021 Charity Kirk: It was super helpful. Appreciate it. 1022 1023 AGENDA ITEM 8: PLANNING BOARD ANNUAL REPORT AND WORK PLAN:To review and approve the annual input from 1024 which informs the BOCC of the past year's activities of advisory boards/commissions and assists 1025 in overall County work planning. 1026 1027 Perdita Holtz: So,tonight we have the planning board's annual report and work plan for your consideration. For 1028 those of you who've been on the board for quite some time,you know that every December we 1029 bring you this work item, and it eventually makes it way on to a BOCC work session agenda in the 1030 spring of the following year along with all of the other advisory boards that the County has. So, 1031 this year's report contains a fairly extensive list of all of the things that the planning board reviewed 1032 and made a recommendation on in 2024. So,on page 38 in your agenda packet,which I have up 1033 here on the screen,there were several rezoning applications, there were LIDO text amendments, 1034 there were major subdivision concept plans and preliminary plats. You know the briefings on the 1035 Orange County Land Use Plan,which you just received again tonight. There was a briefing on the 1036 climate action plan,and we discussed public notification requirements in a little work session 1037 earlier this year as well. So even though we have missed the past two months of meetings,we
