Discuss and Consider Amendment
Committee discussed an amendment to the zoning ordinance to add detention requirements. We compared our current requirements to those of surrounding areas, with a concentration on the Prosper ordinance because of wording and adaptability.
A motion was made by Elliot Townsend to adopt the town of Prosper’s drainage system requirements, having it replace our current Subdivision Ordinance 6.03, with the following changes: Any Prosper specific or county specific wording or phrasing would be amended to fit Tioga’s needs and usage and charts and tables that are specific to Prosper would be replaced with charts and tables specific to Tioga. All and any of this with the recommendation that the city engineer and city attorney review and approve.
Kim seconded, all ayes, motion carries.
It was discussed and agreed that we would plan and look for solutions that do not discourage builders and also keep the cost low for all parties involved, including good stewardship of the city’s resources.
