Title

Second reading and adoption of an Ordinance to amend the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Rock Hill Code, Article 6: Development and Design Standards concerning Infill Design and Development Standards for Old Town area.   (Case #T-2011-04)

 

Body

The proposed amendments seek to make it easier for “Walk2Campus”-style redevelopment projects to occur in support of the College Town Action Plan by allowing for shared parking areas when multiple homes are under one management entity and by allowing alternative surfacing materials such as gravel in order to provide for an easier transition back to single-family use. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the amendments at their November meeting. After deferral by City Council, staff returned with a revised recommendation that was accepted by Council on May 29, 2012. See attached staff report for more information.
