Union County chair adopts 120-day moratorium on development tied to public sewer
Summary
At a June 12 meeting, the Chair adopted Resolution R-2026-28, creating a 120-day emergency moratorium on applications for development of any property on public sewer while county ordinances are reviewed; a first reading of revisions is set for June 18, 2026.
The Chair announced at the Union County meeting on June 12 that "I hereby adopt resolution R-2026-28," instituting an emergency moratorium on applications for development of any property on public sewer. The moratorium, the Chair said, "will be effective for a period of 120 days from today, 06/12/2026, at 04:30 or until repealed by adoption of new regulations or ordinances." The statement was made when the meeting was called to order.
County officials said the moratorium is intended to give staff and elected officials time to review and revise the relevant section of the Union County Code of Ordinances because of expansion of city sewer into other areas of the county. The Chair announced that the first reading of the ordinance revisions will be conducted at the June 18, 2026 county meeting and that questions about those changes "will be asked later during the meeting." The transcript does not record a roll-call vote or identify a mover or seconder for the resolution; the Chair92s proclamation in the record indicates adoption at the meeting.
