Town of Strasburg:
“Strasburg residents and business owners get a chance Monday
to learn about new zoning and development rules under consideration. Town
officials plan to hold a public meeting on the draft of the Unified Development
Ordinance at 7 p.m. in the municipal building, 174 E. King St. Economic
Development and Planning Manager Kimberly Murray said Thursday that town
officials and the consulting firm will hold the meeting as part of the public
rollout of the large document…
Town Council would not vote to adopt the regulations until
March 11 at the earliest. As Murray explained, the ordinance is an attempt to
streamline the process through which developers obtain permits needed for
projects. The ordinance sets up a clearer timeline for the approval process,
giving developers an idea of what they needed to provide to the town staff and
when. The ordinance also calls for the town and developer to discuss the
proposal before the application process begins. The ordinance also formalizes
the technical review committee's involvement in the process, Murray said.
The new ordinance also would include regulations designed to
prevent situations like the failed housing project on U.S. 11 once called Cedar
Valley. Murray said the ordinance contains language that requires a developer
clean up a site if a project falls through.”
