Title:

Impact of LDC recommended changes

Content:

In addition to all the questions and concerns we have received about the proposed new Land Development Code I have not seen any information that the Planning Department has examined the impact of their recommended revisions. I am therefore requesting Richland County staff provide answers to the following prior to moving forward with any further readings/changes:

1. Provide a carrying capacity report to both the public and elected officials as to whether or not the existing resources in the county can handle the results of the recommended revisions in density and land use. This report will include the effects on:

a. waste treatment
b. water supply
c. drainage system
d. traffic impact and road conditions resulting from the plan revision
e. school impact
f. public transportation
g. law enforcement input relating to crime statistics
h. environment
i. neighborhoods

If our resources are not capable of supporting the impact of the changes the plan will need to either be revised or a capital plan developed to address the changes and additions resulting from the plan changes.
