On October 2nd, City staff presented a plan to the City Council that calls for temporarily adopting the County’s Development Regulations and the Cherokee Water and Sewer Authority regulations.

The first reading is planned for December 18th and adoption is expected in January. In addition, the City considering major changes to the development review process to create a more streamlined process, eliminating the number of required plan submittals and unnecessary steps in the process.
