Due to the increase in development over the years and the development that is currently taking place, a need exists to review the current ordinance, add needed protections and provide an overall update to Section 12-6 of the Land Development Code, the proposed amendment is provided for Council consideration.
Laurie Murphy has worked on this item with outside legal assistance while also obtaining input from the Mayor’s Office as well as Inspection Services.
