Planning board clears LDO text corrections intended to align board duties
Summary
The planning board recommended TA-26-0007, a technical LDO amendment that corrects inconsistencies in a duties table so the ordinance language matches current practice about which board hears particular matters; the motion to recommend approval passed unanimously.
Staff summarized TA-26-0007 as a housekeeping amendment to fix inconsistent language in the Land Development Ordinance so that the table of board duties matches the ordinance text. "We're not changing the process. We're just fixing the text to match the processes that we've been following," the presenter said.
Board members asked whether the planning board had authority to recommend the change; staff and multiple members confirmed that the board may make recommendations to the Board of Commissioners. A motion to recommend approval was seconded and the motion carried without recorded opposition; the recommendation will be forwarded to the Town Board of Commissioners for final action.
No additional substantive policy changes were proposed; the amendment aims to eliminate contradictions between the table and the body text of the LDO.
