INC NEWS - FW: UDO Text Amendment TC07-15 Planning Commission Notice

[Pat Carstensen]

Small clarification on this:  the current ordinance says access has to be a major or minor thoroughfare.  I think the DRB approval is pretty much useless as the proposal gives no direction on WHY they would approve or disapprove the connection.  On the other hand, I don't know of any place where developers would want to put a hotel with the access through residential streets -- would defer to neighborhoods along I-85 or 15-501, for example, to figure out if this is a real issue.

What this proposes is that it requires a minor use permit (something DRB can issue?) if the traffic to a proposed hotel goes through a residential street.
