Residents of Garner, North Carolina, mark your calendars – the town council is gearing up for a significant public hearing on the future of residential and mixed-use development. In a continuation from the September 16 meeting, the council will convene on October 21 at 6 p.m. to delve into Zoning Text Amendment #ZTA-24-001, as detailed in a notice published by the Town of Garner.
The amendment, proposed by the Garner Planning Department, intends to align with the comprehensive plan's visions for the town's development. Major highlights on the docket include scrutinizing use tables for Residential and Mixed-Use zoning districts, measuring exceptions, setting development standards, and reinforcing transportation corridor overlays. There's also discussion anticipated on residential use category regulations, and the precise language that defines these various zoning terminologies, according to the official public hearing notice by the Town of Garner.
The upcoming public hearing will address development plans that could influence Garner’s housing and business landscape. Topics may include residential density, affordability, and the mix of living and commercial spaces. The meeting will be live-streamed on Facebook and YouTube.
