New Subdivision Ordinance Passes; Available On County Website

After holding a public hearing earlier this month on proposed amendments to the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance, the Potter County Board of Commissioners approved the document at their business meeting on Oct. 21. The Subdivision Ordinance revisions were crafted by the Potter County Planning Commission. PCPC members unanimously voted to recommend to Commissioners Doug Morley, Paul Heimel and Susan Kefover that the amendments be adopted.

Changes deal with regulations covering development of new rental cabins, single-lot subdivisions for property owners’ family members, surface requirements for subdivision roads, minimum road frontage and other regulations. Copies of the new ordinance are available at the Planning Office in the Gunzburger Building (274-8254). The ordinance can also be accessed through the county’s website.
