Planning commission forwards comprehensive plan to council with conditions
Summary
The commission voted to recommend the city comprehensive plan to council with suggested revisions including reviewing the Carolina Trace/New Haven land-use designation and a requested wording change noted by a commenter; one commissioner abstained due to prior steering-committee participation.
The Harrison Planning Commission voted to forward the draft comprehensive plan to city council with specific recommendations and conditions for council consideration.
Staff asked the commission to advance the plan and flagged two items for additional review: a land-use recommendation for the corner of Carolina Trace and New Haven (currently shown as multi-unit residential in the draft plan that staff suggested may be better suited for regional commercial) and a wording comment flagged by Mr. House regarding a "pit" entry in the plan text. Staff clarified that the comprehensive plan is policy guidance and not zoning, but that the commission can recommend changes for council consideration.
A commissioner who served on the plan's steering committee chose to abstain from the recommendation vote; other members voted to forward the plan with the discussed conditions. The commission’s action will send the draft plan and the commission’s suggested edits to the city council for formal review and possible adoption.
