Milton OKs incentive for large-lot developments
The Milton City Council has approved an ordinance encouraging large-lot developments in the city, by allowing subdivisions with lots greater than three acres to have preliminary plats approved administratively.
Preliminary plats for developments with lots of less than three acres will be forwarded by the community development director to the Planning Commission for a public hearing, review, comment and recommendation, according to the ordinance.
“For preliminary plats where all lots (other than common areas) are greater than three acres and staff has determined that the application is complete and complies with the requirements of this chapter, the community development director shall approve the preliminary plat without requiring the review of the Planning Commission,” the ordinance says.
