Sections 58.499.4 and 58.499.5 states the following:

The I-C district implements GMP Future Land Use Goal 2, to promote a wide variety of employment alternatives both inside and outside of activity centers, and Future Land Use Objective 2.3 and Policy 2.3.1, to provide standards for industrial uses located outside activity centers and mixed use corridors. The I-C district implements the Industrial cate- gory of the Future Land Use Map Series.

The I-C district is intended to provide for the beneficial use of intensive commercial and light-industrial properties located along and oriented to arterial and four-lane collector streets, to accommodate many of the commercial and light-industrial uses located on property zoned C-2, C-3 or Industrial in Orange County prior to annexation, and to ac- commodate uses that cannot be effectively integrated into pedestrian-oriented mixed-use centers due to the size, bulk, weight or type of products or services offered. The I-C dis- trict is intended to encourage redevelopment to higher standards of design and to im- prove compatibility with adjacent residential properties.

The I-C zoning district allows for the following permitted uses; conservation, drive in facility, eating and drinking, light manufacturing, office, medical office, medical/dental labs, parking/ principal use, public passive park, public benefit use (PBU), personal storage, recreation outdoor and indoor, light retailing, intensive retailing, personal service, intensive service, automotive ser- Staff’s Recommendation vice, warehouse showroom and wholesale/warehouse.

These uses can the sole use on the property.

Growth Management Plan Project Planner The Industrial Future Land Use is described in Figure LU-1 in the Future Land Use Element. The Michelle Beamon Robinson, Industrial Future Land Use designation allows for a maximum of 40 units per acre and/or 0.70 AICP FAR and a minimum of 12 units per acre and no minimum FAR. It also allowed for industrial use, office use, public recreation and institutional use, commercial use (secondary use only) and residential use (where allowed by the applicable subarea policy and zoning district, residential uses may be allowed in the Traditional City through a Conditional Use permit).

Conclusion The I-C zoning category is usually recommended for newly annexed areas that have a mixture of industrial and commercial uses, such as Narcoossee Road south of Lee Vista Boulevard and north of S.R. 528. The I-C zoning district allows for commercial uses and it is compatible with the Industrial Future Land Use designation. Therefore, staff has proposed to add clarification to the Indus- trial Future Land Use to allow for commercial as a primary use within the I-C zoning district.
