Existing <br /> development varies greatly by location but generally includes single-family <br /> homes,neighborhood-scale commercial uses such as service stations and <br /> convenience stores, farms,forestry,and undeveloped parcels." <br /> • The concept of combing was introduced because of the similarities of <br /> compatible zoning districts permitted among the RNAN, RCAN, and <br /> RIAN. <br /> • Simplifying the number of land use categories will help create a more <br /> user-friendly plan. <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> NORTH CAROLINA <br /> 6 <br />
