Encroachment Chapter 30 Planning and Development Article VIII, Site development. Sec. 30-249. - Planned rights-of- way indicates that “No improvements, including stormwater retention areas, shall be permitted within the planned rights-of-way for major streets as defined in Chapter 38, article XV of the County Code, as the same may be amended.” In addition, Chapter 21 Article VI of the Land Development Code regulates right-of-way utilization of county rights-of-way or easements and stipulates that “No encroachment shall be erected in or on any right-of-way unless consistent with the Right-of-Way Utilization Regulations of Orange County.” Connectivity and Block Length While the county does not regulate block length countywide, Sec. 38-1390.33. of the Orange County Land Development Code standardizes block lengths for a large area known as the Horizon West Town Center Planned Development. The code encourages variations in block lengths, widths, and geometric configurations, and the contexts and use of the site determine the degree of flexibility for block plans. Table 13 outlines the minimum and maximum standards for block length and depth.
