Working group votes to ask staff to draft simplified plan-development categories
Summary
Members approved a motion directing staff to draft a consolidated set of zoning/plan-development categories for growth areas to simplify overlay districts and include parameters on density, uses and housing types; the group specified affordability should be considered.
Presenter/Moderator (Speaker 3) described a proposal to consolidate multiple village and plan-development overlays into a smaller set of master-plan or PD-style categories for growth areas served by utilities. He framed the work as producing general parameters (density, allowable uses, percent commercial vs. residential, and housing types) rather than drafting full ordinance language.
Committee member (Speaker 1) moved to ask "Ligon" to draft the consolidated categories; the motion was seconded and then approved by voice vote. "The motion from the floor was just to allow Ligon to make up a draft of... possible zoning categories to replace the existing group" Committee member (Speaker 1) said. Members agreed the draft should consider affordability and that any detailed ordinance language would come through the county zoning process.
