Brunswick County planning director Kirstie Dixon invites residents to meetings on unified development ordinance

Kirstie Dixon, planning director for Brunswick County, North Carolina, invited residents to community meetings on the county’s unified development modernization project and said officials will debut information about an upcoming ordinance and provide a copy of the presentation online for those unable to attend.

Dixon said the meetings are intended to share details of proposed changes to the unified development code and to give residents an opportunity to learn about the ordinance. "I'm inviting you to our community meetings for our unified development modernization project where we'll be debuting information about the upcoming ordinance to share with you," Dixon said.

The announcement did not include dates, times or locations for the meetings. Dixon added that "if you can't make the meetings, we will be providing a copy of the presentation online." The county did not specify where online materials will be posted or a timeline for the posting.

The outreach signals the start of public engagement on code modernization that could affect residents, developers and property owners across Brunswick County. Officials did not announce any formal vote or next procedural steps in the statement; residents seeking more information were told materials would be made available online.
