Here, I will address only the things that have not been talked about much yet because they may be considered 'minor' things to many. However, these minor things may unnecessarily arouse the public's distrust and suspicions on the intentions of the parties drafting the ordinances.
Line 522 - [and] in
I have to ask the reason for this change.
If anything should be changed, the term 'reasonable' should be defined in detail.
Changes in Size of Major vs. Minor Subdivision
Is the number of lots for minor vs. major subdivisions changed? Why did this become part of the new Buffer/Wetlands Ordinance?
This seemingly unrelated change was never discussed in the introduction of the ordinance.
Furthermore, this change was made by inserting the new definitions (in lines 96-104) and removing the specific numbers from the §99-6 General Requirements and Restrictions (in lines 235 and 263). This way, it takes scrutiny to find what replaced what was removed.
Please explain the need for this or remove the change from the ordinance.
