Planning Board to take up flood insurance update, four zoning requests

The Winston-Salem City-County Planning Board has a busy agenda for its July 9 meeting, including a proposed ordinance update tied to federal flood insurance requirements and public hearings on four rezoning requests. The meeting follows a relatively quiet week for the Community Appearance Commission, which held a procedural session and saw one of its committees cancel a meeting.

Recent meetings

Community Appearance Commission — June 24

The commission met on June 24 to handle largely procedural business. Its agenda included approval of summary minutes from 26 past meetings dating back to September 2023. The commission also received updates from its Technical Advisory, Education and Awards, and Trees and Woodlands committees, as well as an official report on commission activities. Minutes from the meeting have not yet been published.

Additionally, the commission’s Education and Awards Committee canceled its June meeting. No items were discussed or decided.

Upcoming meetings

Planning Board (City-County) — July 9 at 4 p.m.

The board will hold public hearings and consider several land-use items. The most notable is a text amendment to the Unified Development Ordinances (UDO-CC36) that would incorporate updates from the National Flood Insurance Program. This is a policy change affecting development rules in flood-prone areas.

The board will also hold public hearings on four rezoning requests:

Allred Investment Company: Rezoning of a 30-plus-acre parcel on East Hanes Mill Road to General Business-Limited (GB-L).
Alma Mata: Rezoning from Residential Single-family 9 (RS9) to Neighborhood Office-Limited (NO-L) on Country Club Road.
Andrea Adams Strickland: Rezoning to Highway Business-Limited (HB-L) at University Parkway and Laura Avenue.
Valmont Hills Planned Residential Development (PRD): Continuation of a proposal for 222 lots on 102.85 acres zoned RS9.

The board will also elect officers and approve minutes from previous meetings.
