A future phase will rewrite the town's Land Use Management <br /> Ordinance (which is the Town's development regulations, similar to the County's LIDO). Further <br /> information on the project is available at http://chartingourfuture.info/ <br /> As part of the process,the Town has designated six "Focus Areas"for further evaluation for future <br /> growth. In April of this year Town staff held a public meeting to receive feedback on potentially adding <br /> an additional focus area south of Southern Village that would extend along 15-501 to the Chatham <br /> County line. To date,the issue has not been on a Town Council agenda. A general update by Town staff <br /> on the Charting Our Future project is currently scheduled for the October 2, 2019 Town Council agenda. <br /> The potential additional focus area is wholly within the Town's planning jurisdiction. It is mentioned <br /> here because of its proximity to the assessment area detailed in this report. <br /> - 11- <br />
