December 2025 Morganton Board of Adjustment

The December 2025 meeting of the City of Morganton Board of Adjustment primarily addressed an application for a variance related to parking space requirements under the city's zoning ordinance. The applicant, Warlick Asset Management LLC, requested a reduction from two parking spaces per dwelling to 1.5 spaces per unit. Due to only four board members being present, the board offered to continue the hearing to a future date to allow a full five-member vote, which requires a four-fifths majority for variance approval under North Carolina law. The board approved a motion to continue the matter to January, deferring any decision on the variance request. Additionally, the board approved the minutes from the June 4, 2025 meeting. No procurement, contracting, or budget discussions were conducted during this session.
