Orange County listed proposed Chapter 38 zoning amendments for a first public hearing on October 27, according to the county’s October 26 meeting preview.

The notice says the proposals would revise definitions and standards for mobile and manufactured homes, address where such homes and private schools may be allowed, and add residential-compatibility standards for rezoning applications. It also refers to architectural glazing requirements in the Horizon West Village Center District.

The county describes this as the first of two required public hearings. These are proposals, not a statement that new zoning rules have been adopted or that a particular property is approved for development. Owners should check the final ordinance and applicable local jurisdiction before relying on any change.
