Judge ORR
concurring in the result.
I agree with the majority that the original notices prior to 18 July 1988 were inadequate to apprise residents of the southern section of the county of the Commissioners’ intent to adopt a zoning ordinance. Those citizens in the southern section were not properly notified of this pending enactment. However, I disagree with the majority’s conclusion that the second notice of October 1988 pertaining to the southern half of the county was adequate to overcome the earlier failure. This second notice pertained only to the proposed Zoning Map and not to the enactment of the actual Zoning Ordinance which had been already enacted without proper notice to the residents of the southern section of the county.
Since the majority concludes, however, that the trial court’s decision should be reversed based on a failure to properly amend the ordinance, I concur in the result.
