Edgefield planning commission forwards comprehensive-plan and zoning changes to county council
Summary
The commission voted to forward a consolidated package of changes — to the county comprehensive plan, land-use map, rural-agriculture zone and overlay-district rules — to the county council for review after a motion was made and seconded; no amendments were adopted at the meeting.
The Edgefield County Planning Commission voted Aug. 8 to forward a consolidated set of amendments to the county comprehensive plan, the county land-use map, an expansion of the rural-agriculture zone and changes to the county overlay district to the county council.
Speaker 5 moved to approve the consolidated motion "to modify the ordinances, zoning and the comprehensive plan," and the motion was seconded and approved by the commission by voice/gesture. No roll-call vote with named tallies was recorded in the meeting transcript; the chair declared the motion approved and instructed staff to send the package to county council for their review.
Commissioners had the option to vote on each of the four items separately if they wanted to propose amendments item-by-item, but after discussing the minor adjustments staff said they would make for homeowners, the commission chose to forward the entire package together.
Staff indicated the materials will go to county council where they may undergo multiple readings; the commission did not set a specific council hearing date at the meeting. The commission adjourned after routine new-business remarks and a prayer; no public speakers addressed the public hearing items.
