30 feet. Due to these aforementioned limitations on project intensity the ED-LNR allows a <br />reduction in the normally required 100 -foot EDD perimeter buffer to be reduced to 50 feet. <br />However, all buffer planting requirements are to be met. <br />The existing ED-1-0-1 district severely restricts usage for some of the lots in both Tract 1 and <br />Tract 2. The original thought was that some of the tracts would recombine and develop as one <br />project. This has not occurred even though some properties offered for sale adjoin each other. <br />There are, or have been recently, three properties offered for sale along this corridor. Anecdotal <br />comments have indicated that the primary reason for lack of sales and conversion of these <br />properties to offices and low impact services has been due to the current zoning district <br />requirements. However, the EDD Design Manual that sets the internal buffer requirements <br />between adjacent land uses is just as likely the reason. The proposed buffer text amendments <br />(at Public Hearing concurrently) to the EDD Design Manual will allow buffer flexibility and will <br />provide, if approved, the necessary modifications to�allow these properties to develop <br />individually, perhaps to use existing dwellings, rather than as a part of a larger scale project. <br />ZONING OFFICER ANALYSIS: As required under Section 20.3.3 of the Orange County Zoning <br />Ordinance, the Zoning Officer is required to: '...cause an analysis to be made of the application <br />and, based upon that analysis, prepare a recommendation for consideration by the Planning <br />Board and the Board of County Commissioners'. <br />Staff Findings and Analysis <br />1. Both Tract 1 and Tract 2 are located. within the Hillsborough Area Economic Development <br />District, which by definition is an Economic Development Node. <br />2. The ED-LNR district was created to allow for low impact uses on smaller lots, and also to <br />allow for adaptive reuse of existing structures provided that all subdivision, zoning, and <br />building code provisions are met. <br />3. Both the ED-LNR and the ED-1-0-1 districts permit a maximum impervious surface <br />coverage of 50%. <br />4. The maximum height of structures in the ED-LNR district is 30 feet. The maximum height <br />of structures in the ED-LO-1 district is 60 feet. <br />5. When a site within an ED-LNR district adjoins the exterior boundary of the EDD the <br />perimeter buffer may be reduced to fifty-(50) feet. The perimeter buffer of a site within <br />the ED-1-0-1 district is 100 feet. All of the parcels in Tract 1 are less than 200 feet in <br />width. <br />6. All interior landscape buffer requirements are the same in each district. <br />Due to the fact that the ED-LNR district was originally created for future application to lands <br />included in the petitioned areas, a County initiated petition is reasonable and necessary to <br />remove impediments to conversion to more suitable land uses. In conjunction with the <br />proposed buffer text amendments land in the area can more easily convert uses. For future. <br />reference there are two other areas in the Hillsborough Area EDD along NC 86 near 1-85 also <br />targeted as appropriate ED-LNR districts, but are not subject to this petition (See Attachment 2). <br />Notification Procedural Requirements: <br />All property owners whose properties are subject to this petition have been notified by Certified <br />Mail, return receipt requested. All adjacent property owners within 500 feet of the petitioned <br />tracts have been notified by US Mail, First Class in accordance with the zoning ordinance. <br />
