Alamance County Planning Board Meeting
The board discussed concerns raised by residents regarding proposed large-scale residential developments and their impact on local groundwater, aquifers, and infrastructure. Key topics included the potential implementation of a moratorium on water-heavy projects, the need for a more robust public hearing process for subdivision applications, and the importance of zoning regulations to manage growth. Residents urged the board to expedite the development of a unified development ordinance and zoning map to protect rural districts from rapid, unsustainable expansion.
