Timnath Land Use Code Amendments

January 28, 2025

The Timnath Land Use Code (LUC) outlines the regulations that govern land use in our community, including what can be built, where it can be built, and how it can be built. Since its adoption, the LUC has been amended multiple times to adapt to changes and align with best practices.

Code amendments can address any aspect of the LUC, such as zoning, subdivisions, and site plans. These amendments go through a formal process, including public hearings at both the Planning Commission and Town Council. Public hearings provide an opportunity for residents to share their input and comments on proposed changes. Before any amendment is adopted, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission and approved by the Town Council.

The Community Development Department will also host public feedback sessions to gather input before amendments are presented to the Planning Commission. The first feedback session is scheduled for next Wednesday, February 5, at 12 p.m. in the Multi-Purpose Room at Town Hall (4750 Signal Tree Drive). Topics for discussion at this session will include enabling regulations for solar facilities and updates to accessory dwelling unit requirements.
