More Headaches in the UDC – Nov 3rd P&Z Agenda
The following is an excerpt from the P&Z Agenda [Article 5 link] this Thursday, Nov. 3rd, 9:00 am, County Government Center:
“3. Review list of uses in the Land Use Matrix as RV Parks are permitted in the T2 zone. Staff has corrected this designation and changed RV parks from P to S in T2 and T2L zones…”
Article 5, UDC Proposal revised
Fine print: the P&Z can authorize a ‘special use permit’ allowing an RV Park in our area. Not good.
The ETZ requires a Public Hearing for any Special Use Permits. The UDC allows ‘Administrative Approval’ of Special Use Permits with no Public Hearing according to Section 2.4.1
“The Zoning Administrator may administratively approve a special use permit if no written objections are received within 21 days from the date that notice is provided consistent with Section 2.4.3 provided all agency review comments are satisfactorily addressed.” pg21 UDC
Other Areas of Concern
There are other ‘Permitted’(P), ‘Special Use Permit’(S), and ‘Agricultural, On Farm Operations Only’(A) items listed in the Land Use Classification Matrix table that might be objectionable to our residents.
