Okay.
I'm going to call the meeting to order

2
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:17,400

Currituck Planning Board. At this time,

3
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:21,400
we're going to stand for a pledge of
allegiance and a moment of silence.

4
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:35,480
» I pledge allegiance to the flag of the
United States of America, and to the

5
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:41,440
republic for which it stands, one nation
under God, indivisible, with liberty and

6
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,440
justice for all.

7
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,520
» Thank you.

8
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,960
All right.
Moving on.

9
00:00:55,720 --> 00:01:02,080
I am going to ask for any
disqualifications on the new business

10
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:08,480
before us tonight.
Hearing none, we do have a quorum.

11
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:14,840
Moving on to the approval of the agenda.
We have one item in old business, which

12

» I.
>> All those opposed likewise. The agenda

18
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:38,160

You've had a chance to look at our

19
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:43,680
minutes from the February 10th meeting,
which was a fairly involved meeting. Uh

20
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:48,000
we went over quite a bit of stuff at
that meeting. I'm going to go ahead, if

21
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:51,720
you've had a chance to look at that and
see any changes that need to be made,

22
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:55,600
I'm going to entertain a motion for
approval of the minutes from our

31
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:27,200
» Six, okay.
So, if you'll just come on up, Juanita,

I want to really thank you for your
service and

33
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:34,320
» They changed the rules. It was supposed

34
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:34,800

And I I left my reading glasses, so I'm
not going to read it, but

00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,040
that's the resolution of appreciation.
>> Oh, that's very nice.

39
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:55,520

» THANK YOU.
MOVING ON TO NEW BUSINESS.

59
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:28,680
THE first and only item of new business
this evening is planning board 26-01

60
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:34,520
Currituck County.
Request to amend the unified development

61
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:39,040
ordinance chapter 4 use standards to
modify the requirement for public

62
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:43,440
convenience center {slash} transfer
station. At this time we'll hear from

63
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,440
staff.

64
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:49,200
» Um, this amendment is sponsored by the
Board of Commissioners. A little

65
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:53,560
background, the Board of Commissioners
directed staff to plan an expansion of

66
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,600
an existing county-owned public
convenience center.

67
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,560
Currently the expansion would require a
special use permit.

68
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:03,360
Because the county itself is the
applicant and the board has already

69
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:07,080
provided direction on the project,
having the board also act as the

70
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:11,800
decision maker creates fairness concern
and requires the county to spend public

71
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:15,240
funds on appraisers and expert witnesses
to make its own case.

72
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,880
Amending the ordinance to allow the
expansion

73
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:22,600
with those with a zoning permit while
requiring a community meeting before an

74
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:27,360
application is submitted better
separates policy decisions from permit

75
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:31,000
review, reduces unnecessary cost and
litigation risk,

76
00:05:28,919 --> 00:05:34,320
and still ensures transparency and
meaningful public input.

77
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:42,160
Getting to the actual ordinance
language, item one, amend the summary

78
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:46,320
use table to remove the SUP requirement
and add the zoning permit requirement.

79
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,800
Item two,
adds the community meeting requirement

80
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,560
to the specific standards for public
convenience center transfer station.

81
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:05,000
These land use plan goals may apply to
the request. Land use goal two,

82
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:09,480
carefully consider the design and
location of intensive and potentially

83
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:13,520
incompatible land uses to mitigate
compatibility issues such as

84
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:19,280
environmental quality, safety,
overburdening, local infrastructure,

85
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:23,160
scale, use design use design, location,
and adverse effects.

86
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:27,960
Infrastructure and county services goal
one, ensure sufficient provision of

87
00:06:25,919 --> 00:06:31,200
services to support associated growth
and development and continue to enforce

88
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,840
the adequate public facilities
ordinance.

89
00:06:33,919 --> 00:06:39,560
These are the review standards that you
may consider when deliberating whether

90
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:43,480
to approve or deny a text amendment.
These standards are available in the

91
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,480
agenda packet.

92
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,919
Staff recommends approval of this
request as it is consistent with the

93
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:53,720
general purpose and intent of the
Unified Development Ordinance and is

94
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:58,400
consistent with the goals, objectives,
and policies of the Imagine Currituck

95
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:03,680
2040 Vision Plan, including land use
goal two and infrastructure

96
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:06,680
and county service goal one. And I'd be
happy to answer any questions that the

97
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,480
board may have.
>> Okay, any questions for staff?

98
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,880
No questions.
Everybody that seems pretty pretty much

99
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,840
self-explanatory [clears throat]
on this.

100
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,880
» good.
>> Yeah.

101
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:44,480
So, at this time, uh, no discussion
between board members at this time. I'm

102
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:48,480
going to open the floor for a motion for
approval or denial.

103
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,160
» Move to approve.
>> Okay.

104
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,160
Uh
>> I'll

105
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:58,520
» He needs to Yeah.
Brian, that's fine.

106
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,520
» Just Oh, I have It puts me on the spot.

107
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:05,880
» Uh
>> Beg pardon. Here we go. I move to

108
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:10,600
approve PB 26-01,
Currituck County text amendment, because

109
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:14,800
the request is in con conformance
with with the general purpose and intent

110
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:18,680
of the unified development ordinance,
and is it consistent with the goals,

111
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:25,400
objectives, and policies of the Imagine
Currituck 2040 Vision Plan, including

112
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:29,880
land use goal two and ICS goal one.
>> Okay. Thank you. We have a motion. Do I

00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,560
hear a second?
>> Second.

114

» I have a motion and a second. All those
in favor say I.

115
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:38,080
» I.
>> All those opposed likewise. Motion

116
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:43,919
passes.
Okay. That takes care of this business.

117
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,919
Now, let's move on

118
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:51,240
to announcements.
>> Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wanted

119
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:54,240
to share one announcement this evening,
and he's not going to like it.

120
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:59,200
Um
I know, but I'd like to take a moment to

121
00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:02,920
recognize Bill Noonan.
Just give me one moment while I prepare

122
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:06,986
what he gave me to read about it. I'm
just kidding.

123
00:09:04,966 --> 00:09:06,986
» [laughter]

124
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:14,200
» If I'm doing this right, I can get
through it. Otherwise, it might not.

125
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:18,160
But, it just real briefly, I just like
to say, you know, he's served our county

126
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:23,680
for many years as a building inspector
and then as a chief building inspector.

127
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:26,360
And since October of 2023, he's led
the planning

128
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,680
and [clears throat] inspections
department, and we just can't thank him

129
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:35,880
enough
for his leadership and character.

130
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:39,600
He has set us up for success, and now
it's up to us to continue what he's

131
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,440
built.
Obviously, with with all of our help.

132
00:09:41,560 --> 00:09:46,080
And
we'll advise everyone in the near future

133
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:51,080
of what's next for our department, but
for today, please congratulate Bill

134
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:54,760
on his upcoming retirement and on his
absolutely dedicated service to our

great county.
And our our our staff would just

136
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:01,600
appreciate your support as we move
forward without him, but we have the

137
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:04,360
resolve to press on and to continue to
implement what what he's taught us. So,

00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,360
thank you.
>> Thank you.

139
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,191
