INC NEWS - FYI: Proposed UDO Text Amendment TC07-13 (lots in here)

[Melissa Rooney]

Please see below.

I'm not sure what "minor technical revisions" really
means, but this amendment appears to relate to:

'Residential Suburban (RS) Development Intensity'

'Nonresidential Development in Residential Districts'

'Open Space'

'Floodplain and Flood Damage Protection Standards''

'Pedestrian and Bicycle Mobility'

'Enforcement, sections relating to sedimentation and
erosion control'

Among other things...

Would love it if anyone has anything to say about
these revisions, as reading this stuff makes my head
spin ;)
