ATTACHIVVII;NT ONE (1) -REZONING ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS <br />AND DESIGN SOLUTIONS RECOMl~~NDATION TABLE <br />REZONING: <br />The processing of a rezoning request is in accordance with the provisions of Article Twenty (20) <br />Amendments of the Zoning Ordinance (hereafter `Ordinance'). As part of the review of this <br />request, the Zoning Officer is required to cause an analysis to be made of the application, and <br />based upon that analysis, prepare a recommendation for consideration of the request for review <br />by the Planning Board (hereafter `Board') and Board of County Commissioners (hereafter <br />`BOCC'). <br />Additionally both the Ordinance and North Carolina General Statutes, specifically 153A-341, <br />requires that the review of any and all Zoning Atlas and/or Text amendments include written <br />comments and recommendations on the consistency of the proposed amendment with an adopted <br />Comprehensive Plan and any other relevant plans (i.e. Small Area Plan, a corridor plan, a <br />transportation plan, etc.) that have been adopted by the governing board. <br />Prior to adopting or rejecting any rezoning request, the BOCC is required to adopt a statement <br />describing whether its action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining <br />why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest. <br />The following chart details: <br />1.
