Development season opens in North Carolina

 

It may be 75 miles from Greensboro, North Carolina to Cary (a suburb to the Tar Heel State’s capital of Raleigh) but the two towns are in synch on the need to create clearer and accessible land development guidelines.  Whatever the current state of the economy, City leaders and citizens are looking to the future.

In Greensboro, according to the News-Record, an update of the city’s land development rules is headed to the City Council for approval.  “The goal of the rewrite is to make the ordinance easier to understand and use for everyone, from developers to residents affected by re zonings.”

In Cary, the process is not as far along, but is headed in the same direction.  According to the Cary Citizen newspaper a set of town hall meetings are being held that “will be used to further revise the proposed draft plan before the county or the town hold official public hearings in Spring 2010…”

In keeping with the move to regionalize development plans, the Cary eff0rt is being done in conjunction with Chatham County.
