The “Stakeholder Meetings Table” below presents the primary takeaways from these conversations organized as follows: Valued Assets, Opportunities, Challenges, and Suggestions, the latter with subcategories of Zoning and Land Development Regulations, Housing, Community

Natural and Other.

Suggestions

ZONING AND LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS Focus growth around existing infrastructure (e.g., TOD in I-26 area) early on that the Plan’s purpose is to determine where and how to “build strategically,” rather than just “build anything anywhere”

Implement a proactive “coordinated review” process to assess a new project’s potential development impacts; require impact mitigation plan (e.g., traffic, schools, stormwater) before granting approval

Inventory current land development regs to identify conflicts with county goals and intentions (e.g., wetland preservation)

Overhaul or amend Zoning Code and Land Development Regulations to better address needs:

• Flex 1 zoning district has last large land tracts, industrial uses not permitted

• Revise impact fee structure (“one size does NOT fit all”)

• Encourage smaller (more affordable) lot sizes with patio homes, duplex, triplex and quads

• Encourage mixed-use development for ‘live, work, shop and play’ lifestyle

• Encourage and incentivize low-impact development and provide conceptual details
