Tega Cay planning staff present draft 2025–2035 comprehensive plan; resident questions boundary mapping
Summary
Planning staff summarized the draft 2025–2035 comprehensive plan and its public-engagement process; resident Daryl McDaniel asked why his adjacent property is shown in the plan, and staff explained the plan includes adjacent parcels for visioning but does not change zoning or force annexation.
City planning staff presented the draft 2025–2035 comprehensive plan and outlined the steering-committee process, three community engagement events and coordination with the Catawba Regional Council of Governments.
Planner Nick Cawthon (introduced by the planning commission chair) told the council the comprehensive plan is a guiding document intended to set a 10-year vision and does not itself amend the city’s zoning ordinance or land-development regulations. During the public-hearing portion, resident Daryl McDaniel said he found a large portion of his property shown in the draft plan even though it lies outside the city boundary; staff answered that the plan examines adjacent properties for visioning purposes and that any annexation or zoning change would require a separate formal process.
Council opened the public-hearing portion, solicited comments and then closed that portion after residents’ questions were answered; no formal action to adopt the plan was recorded during the public portion summarized in the transcript.
The planning commission’s earlier review and recent edits were discussed; council members and staff encouraged residents to review the full draft plan online and emphasized that the document is intended to guide future decision-making rather than to impose immediate regulatory changes.
