Port Wentworth council extends six-month moratorium on rezoning to residential
Summary
Council voted to extend a six-month moratorium on rezoning property to residential classifications, citing remaining approved but not-yet-constructed residential inventory and the need to ensure infrastructure and wastewater capacity.
City Manager Steve Davis asked the council to extend a moratorium on rezoning any property to a residential classification for another six months, saying the city still has significant approved residential inventory that has not yet been built and that the pause will allow infrastructure and wastewater capacity planning to keep pace with growth.
Council approved the extension unanimously in the posted segments. The extension continues a prior pause (two previous six-month extensions were noted) to provide time for staff to assess capacity and coordinate development sequencing.
