Iredell County Planning Board Tables Development Density Limits, For Now

Iredell County Commissioners recently directed staff to initiate a text amendment to its land development code that would have, among other things, limited density to one unit per five-acre parcel in some parts of the county.  The measure was drafted and presented to the Iredell County Planning Board during last week's meeting where it was considered and debated.  Some board members expressed concern about the adverse impact this amendment could have on housing affordability.  Ultimately, it was determined the proposal necessitated additional discussion and it was tabled for the time being.  We will continue to weigh in as the measure receives future consideration.
