information is attached and incorporated into these minutes. Commissioner Reives requested a copy of the list of cemeteries the County maintains. NCGS Article_12.pdf VII.G Development Moratorium Discussion Commissioner Reives expressed concerns related to growth in the County and said there is a need to control the growth that is occurring. He said he is also concerned regarding erosion and sedimentation control. Planning Director Marshall Downey said erosion and sediment control mainly is under the purview of the State, but the Planning Department receives copies of the information. The frequency and intensity of storms have resulted in the failure of a lot of septic systems, which frustrates the neighbors and the public due to the unintended consequences of the runoff. Most of the sedimentation and erosion control measures are intended more for water quality and not necessarily designed for flood prevention. Commissioner Reives stated that the County needs to have something in place that does a better job to prevent the consequences of development on surrounding properties. Typical issues related to development are flood and storm water issues and traffic. Large conditional zoning projects require a neighborhood meeting that answers many of the development impact questions. Downey said a large amount of land in the Land Use Plan was designated for low density and recommended using the plan as a policy guide for smart growth. Chairman Smith asked whether the County has the authority to put a moratorium in place over the City. County Attorney Whitney Parrish advised the answer is no. Commissioner Knecht requested that staff draft a letter to the State to request a review of the policies related to growth. Chairman Smith called for a 10 minutes break at 7:51 p.m. Vill.
