Shelby County schedules May 5 hearing to repeal pipeline zoning ordinance after appellate ruling
Summary
The Board set a May 5, 2026 public hearing to consider repealing Shelby County Ordinance No. 2022-4 following final rulings that found portions of the ordinance preempted; Planning & Zoning recommended repeal.
The Shelby County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2026-22 on April 21 to set a public hearing for 9:00 a.m. on May 5, 2026, to consider repealing Ordinance No. 2022-4, which amended the county zoning code to regulate hazardous liquid pipelines.
