All inconsistent, nonexempt, unimproved property located in a single planning community shall be the subject of a single comprehensive zoning district amendment (rezoning), except as provided herein. Such comprehensive rezonings shall be on a planning community by planning community basis, commencing with all inconsistent, nonexempt, unimproved properties for the first planning community (North Naples), then all inconsistent, nonexempt, unimproved properties for the second planning community (South Naples), and proceeding successively, until all 12 planning communities have been comprehensively rezoned pursuant to the zoning reevaluation program in section 106-43, unless otherwise determined by the board of county commissioners.
