Body
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY:
At its September 16, 2019 meeting, Town Council set a public hearing on November 4, 2019, to extend the temporary suspension of the Maple Avenue Commercial (Zone), set to expire on November 15, 2019, to June 30, 2020, and referred the matter to the Planning Commission for consideration.
Previously, at its September 17, 2018 meeting, Town Council voted to temporarily suspend the MAC Zone regulations for 270 days to provide staff time to develop design guidelines, along with related amendments, to the MAC Zone. The moratorium went into effect September 30, 2018, and originally ended June 27, 2019.
On May 13, 2019, Town Council voted to extend the temporary suspension of the MAC Zone regulations to November 15, 2019, to allow time for development of design guidelines and to incorporate potential recommendations of the Maple Avenue Corridor Multimodal Transportation and Land Use Study into the MAC amendments. At its August 19, 2019 meeting, Town Council directed staff to draft amendments to the MAC Zone regulations as its top priority.
