Waxhaw's Planning Board Meeting - April 21, 2026 6:30pm

The Town of Waxhaw Planning Board held a meeting on April 21, 2026, focusing primarily on land use and development regulations. Key procurement-related discussions included consideration and approval of text amendments to the town's land development code, specifically addressing minor subdivisions, private streets, and lot coverage in conservation subdivisions. The board recommended approval of these amendments, citing consistency with the Waxhaw 2040 comprehensive plan and benefits such as improved residential development and infrastructure provision. Additionally, the board discussed the Safe Streets for America (SS4A) federal grant application aimed at funding pedestrian and vehicular safety improvements, including sidewalks on several town streets. The grant is 80% federally funded with a 20% local match spread over ten years, representing a multi-million-dollar capital improvement project. The board voted to approve a letter of support for this grant application. Other topics included scheduling joint training sessions, improving agenda packet distribution timelines, and enhancing communication with the Board of Commissioners. No direct contract awards or vendor selections were reported during the meeting.
