Dorchester’s Planning Commission on December 12

This Thursday, December 12, The Planning Commission will meet at 4:00 PM. Meetings are held in the Summerville County Council Chambers at 500 N. Main Street (Cedar St. Entrance). Here is the link to the Planning Commission November Meeting Agenda Packet: https://www.dorchestercountysc.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/25151/638690939917530000

Of interest for this meeting to the community of the Town of Dorchester is Agenda Item 6 (Old Business) B. ZTA 24-07: Text Amendment to the Dorchester County Zoning and Land
Development Standards Ordinance Number 04-13, as previously amended, with
respect to Article X, Section 10.4.11 “Mineral Resource Extraction Operations” for
the purpose of limiting the proximity of new mineral resource extraction operations
from existing permitted operations.

I believe that for our community, this proposed amendment to the ordinance is a positive step. It aims to control some of the sand mine truck traffic pummeling us in our area.

This is an open public meeting that includes public feedback and comments. Please plan to attend and make your voices heard for a positive change.
