Pegram commission moves to align Subdivision Regulations with Zoning Ordinance, shifts some accessory approvals to codes department
Summary
The Pegram Planning Commission voted unanimously to update Subdivision Regulations to align with the Zoning Ordinance and to change requirements so some accessory buildings no longer require Planning Commission review and can be approved administratively by the codes department.
On Sept. 9 the Pegram Planning Commission voted to begin revising the town's Subdivision Regulations to align them with the Zoning Ordinance and to ease the review process for some accessory structures.
Commissioner Bill Herbert moved to move forward with the alignment and to amend requirements so that certain accessory buildings would not need to come before the Planning Commission and instead could be decided by the codes department; Commissioner Charles Morehead seconded the motion and all members present voted in favor.
The change is procedural: it directs staff and the commission to update the regulations so minor accessory structures can be administratively reviewed, reducing the number of items requiring full commission review. The motion did not list specific text changes; the commission's action authorizes staff to prepare ordinance language or regulatory edits for future review.
Next steps recorded in the meeting minutes indicate staff will proceed with drafting the amendments for commission consideration at a later meeting.
