_ adding Division 8 of the Marion County Land Development Code. Deputy Clerk Lewter presented Proof of Publication of a display ad entitled, "Notice of Amendment Marion County Land Development Code" -published in the Star Banner newspaper on May 7, 2016. The Notice stated the Board will consider adoption of an Ordinance amending the Land Development Code (LDC). Mr. Martsolf stated this is the final hearing for Division 8, amending the LDC involving the visual enhancement overlay zone. He advised that 2 changes have been made to the Ordinance since it was last presented to the Board: 1) The removal of the fence as a requirement, which is now shown as optional in the diagram, but if provided will be either black, white or-neutral in-color; and 2) The oak tree requirement has been changed to shade tree. ­Chairman Bryant opened the floor to public comment. Roger Knechtel, SE 97th Terrace Road, Summerfield, questioned if the county planned to take rights-of-way (ROW) on the east side of CR 475A to create a buffer.

She stated this project will set a precedence for future development. Mr. Minter advised that the word "corridor" referenced in Section 5.8.1 should be replaced by "overlay", noting there are specific requirements for corridor ordinances. Mr. Minter advised that he is unclear as to the lead-in paragraph of Section 5.8.4, which states, "the following are permitted land uses within the overlay zone located east of US Interstate 75 and west of the current, or future; easterly boundary of the right-of-way of CR 475A, (i.e., these limitations shall not apply to land uses lying east of the current for future easterly boundary right-of-way of CR 475A)". He noted the portion in parenthesis state that the limitations do not apply to land uses lying east of the current eastern boundary of CR 475A, which seems to contradict itself within the same sentence. Mr. Minter notes the language also says, "The following are permitted" and then says, "these . limitations". Generally speaking, what is permitted is not a limitation. He asked staff to clarify. Mr. Martsolf advised that it is a clarification of Section 5.8.3 that laid out the boundary for the overlay zone for the uses, noting there was a use restriction placed on the overlay zone and the owner of the largest property east of CR 475A was concerned that they did not want to have the same land use restrictions applied to their property, in any form. He commented on the required buffer that is included in the description of the overlay zone requiring that enhanced buffer. Mr. Martsolf noted the use restriction stops at the western

Book V, Page 535

June 7,2016

line. He stated he has proposed language, that only encompasses the western boundary of CR 475A. ' Mr. Bouyounes addressed the language and the way it is written in the description, which includes all the property from CR 475A, west, and the entire ROW widths of CR 475A. Mr. Minter noted the restrictions do not apply to the easterly ROW boundary. He stated the language can be changed to clarify. Chairman Bryant concurred and 'noted the wording in' Section 5.8.1 will also be changed' from corridor to overlay. Mr. Martsolf agreed. . . It was noted that Section 5.8.4 Permitted Uses was changed as follows:

The following are permitted land uses within the overlay zone located east of US Interstate 75 and west of the current, or future, right-of-way of CR 475A: .

Nan Bonfield, SW 16th Avenue, expressed her support for allowing the developer to decide the type of shade tree to provide. She stated her only concern is that the buffer will become too cluttered.

The first is Organized Retail Crimes. Our local retailers have observed an increase in retail thefts. Upon conducting follow up investigation our Property Crimes Detectives haver discovered that many of our suspects are irnpactinq .rnultiple stores throughout Marion County. The second trend is Organized Fraud. Once again, follow up investigation revealed thatthe suspects are impacting stores throughout Marion County. Our investigations have also revealed that in many cases the suspects are known burglars that have switched and are now targeting our local retailers. The suspects are typically working in groups and. target multiple stores each day. Due to budget constraints, our deputies and detectives are not permitted to work overtime; therefore they are unable to conduct a thorough enough investigation to locate all the suspects in these groups...

Page 544, Book V

June 7,201;6

Description/Background: Section 2.16.1.B(8)(g) of the Land Development Code states a County MSBU shall be established for the .maintenance of the improvements created by this division prior to final approval and recordation. A waiver to this provision may only be granted by the Board upon review and recommendation by the DRC. " The applicant requested the waiver to split 10 acres from 184.46 acre parcel and will share the existing driveway. This will be the second subdivision of the parent parcel which makes it unavailable for the one time subdivision exemption to platting. Further, the parent parcel was not a parcel of record and therefore not eligible to do a Family Division. " 'ORC action on May 9, 2016 was to waive many of the Ag Lot Split requirements because this is a single subdivision of the remainder of the large parent tract and the recipient of the division is the son of the current parent owner. The MSBU was not considered necessary since the sinqle division only creates two users. Any subsequent division would be subject to reconsideration. Budget/Impact: None: Recommended ACtion: Motion to uphold the Development Review Committee's approval to allow the agricultural lot split of a single additional-parcel without the creation of-an MSBU for maintenance.
