Amendment to the Site Plan Review Thresholds for Development (24-02604PZ)
Status: Review by Planning & Zoning Commission
Next Key Date: City Council Public Hearing | March 11, 2025
Managing Planner: Will Palmquist, Principal Planner, wpalmquist@ashevillenc.gov
This is a proposed text amendment to multiple parts of Section 7-5-9, Section 7-11-1, and Section 7-11-8 of the UDO.
The amendment proposes to increase the size of a private development project that can be reviewed and approved administratively rather than by City Council vote within certain zoning districts to remove regulatory barriers and encourage the development of housing along transit-supportive corridors.
In the current code, any residential development containing 50 or more units must receive conditional rezoning approval from City Council.
Public meeting Schedule:
This text change is scheduled for a City Council Public Hearing on March 11, 2025. Comments will be downloaded and summarized for staff and City Council.
