body

DEPARTMENT:  Planning and Development Services

 

ORIGINATOR:  Henry Jennings

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 8/22/25

 

PURPOSE: This ordinance will amend regulations related to rural cluster subdivision and short subdivision requirements to remove the requirement that rural cluster subdivisions receive third-party certification and clarify the timing of requirements for enrollment in third-party certification programs for dwellings.

 

BACKGROUND: Implementation of SCC 30.41C.030 as adopted is not feasible. Third-party certification of a rural cluster subdivision or short subdivision cannot be obtained until the subdivision process has been completed.
