Yanceyville council schedules May 7 hearing on zoning ordinance text amendments
Summary
The council set a public hearing for May 7 to consider text amendments to the town zoning ordinance to conform to North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 160D; the Planning Board has reviewed the changes and staff said the amendments do not change property zoning.
Town Manager Kamara Barnett told the council the Yanceyville Planning Board reviewed proposed text amendments intended to bring the town’s zoning ordinance into conformity with North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 160D and to update definitions, statutory citations and procedures. Barnett said the amendments are text-only and would not alter the zoning of any specific property.
Councilman Kenneth Darnell moved to schedule a public hearing on the proposed text amendments for the May 7, 2024 regular meeting; Councilman Brian Massey seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Why this matters: alignment with Chapter 160D updates local planning procedures and clarifies processes that affect how land use decisions are made and administered. The hearing will allow property owners and residents to comment before council acts.
