The first round of new and revised regulations put together since completion of the new land use plan is close to a vote.
The Park County Planning and Zoning Commission will hold a public hearing on Nov. 20 at 9 a.m. on the amended standards and regulations.
The first round of regulations are, as Park County Planning and Zoning Director Joy Hill has said, the “low-hanging fruit” and “housekeeping” changes, as opposed to the second round, which will likely start early next year and include discussions that could impact lots of future developments.
This first round of proposed updates involves, generally, formatting and administrative changes including, but not limited to:
• Modernizing the format of the document (e.g., automatic page numbering, linked Table of Contents, etc.);
• Updates to Chapter I (Administration);
• A preliminary update of Chapter II (Definitions);
• Updates to portions of the regulations that are directly impacted by recent statutory language changes (e.g., family exemptions, subdivision fencing, etc.); and
• A first-round appendices clean-up.
No changes to the official zoning map of the county are proposed during this round.
The meeting will be held in the Alternate Emergency Operations Center (EOC), located in the basement of the courthouse addition in Cody.
