The Town of Beaufort is developing a new Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), which will enable the Town to combine its zoning, subdivision, flood protection, and minimum housing ordinances into a single document and to integrate policies set forth in the new Comprehensive and CAMA Land Use Plan. The UDO process will allow the Town to revise current regulations to ensure they align with current best practices in North Carolina as well as nationally. The UDO will guide development, redevelopment, and growth for our community for years to come, so public engagement is a critical part of this process. The first step is to identify the scope of work necessary to achieve the Town’s vision in the UDO, and to prioritize our most important areas for potential change. The land use consulting firm White & Smith, LLC will assist in this effort by conducting an assessment of our current codes as well as public and stakeholder work sessions allowing the community to share the issues they believe should be addressed during the UDO update.
Below you will find information on these upcoming meetings. The Town encourages the public to participate in this process!
