Madison County planners debate cutting PUD minimum from 100 to 10 acres

Mar 2, 2026

The Madison County Planning Commission reviewed a proposed amendment to the Planned Unit Development rules that would lower the minimum acreage from 100 to 10 acres, prompting questions about timing, infrastructure and whether a PUD is necessary; a public hearing and vote were set for March 17.

The full story

Tresher, representing planning staff, told the commission that a draft amendment would strike section 7.1 of the county’s zoning ordinance and replace it with section 4.1 from the Unified Development Code draft, lowering the minimum acreage for a planned unit development (PUD) from 100 acres to 10 acres. The change was requested by surveyor Gary Harvin on behalf of applicant Williams Crozer and was drafted by county attorney Mike Pruitt.
