��1Z718� Fi�13UG (-��dC2113C� Ml1lUt�-� 4' A 1 T If 8 for a recommendation to be returned to the Board of Commissioners no sooner than January 8, 1990. VOTE: UNANIMOUS 3. Subdivision Regulations Text Amendments a. Section IV-C--2 - Interim Development Standards This item was heard concurrently with Item 2 a. b. Section II - Definitions This presentation was made by Emily Crudup. The purpose of this presentation was to receive citizen comment on an amendment to Section II of the Subdivision Regulations which will add language to the definition of "subdivision" to be consistent with. State enabling legislation and to clarify standards for lots resulting from the combination or recombination of existing lots. The definition of subdivision in Section II of the Subdivision Regulations follows the language of the North Carolina General Statutes and contains a list of exceptions to the regulations. The words, "portions of, " have been added to the description of combinations and recombinations to be more consistent with the wording in the General Statutes. According to the definition, combinations and recombinations are exempt from the regulations provided "the total number of lots is not increased and the __ resultant lots are equal to or exceed the standards of the County as shown in its subdivision regulations. " The applicable standards for resultant lots have been specified as 1) minimum lot size and lot width, 2) access to a public road, and 3) evaluation of sewage disposal sites by the Health Department, or notice of restricted development potential. The purpose of listing these standards is to make clear the intent that recreation and landscape requirements are not applicable to combinations and recombinations since the number of lots is not increased. Subdivision means all divisions of a tract or parcel of land into two or more lots, building sites, or other divisions for the purpose of sale or building development (whether immediate or future) and includes all divisions of land involving the dedication of a new street or a change in existing streets; however, the following is not included within the definition and is not subject to any regulations. THERE WERE NO COMMENTS FROM THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS, PLANNING BOARD, OR CITIZENS ON THIS ITEM. A motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner Marshall, to refer this item to the Planning Board for a recommendation to be returned to the Board of Commissioners no sooner than January 8, 1989.
