Pitt County Planning Board Meeting - - 7/15/2026 5:30:00 PM

The Pitt County Planning Board held a meeting on July 15, 2026, focusing primarily on zoning and land use matters. Key procurement-related discussions included two conditional rezoning requests: one to amend a general commercial conditional district to allow RV and boat storage on a 2.88-acre property along US 264 East, and another to rezone a rural agricultural parcel to general commercial conditional district for operating a barber shop near Blackjack Road. Both requests included conditions related to site plans, landscaping, erosion control, and compliance with county and state regulations. The board approved both rezoning requests and recommended them to the Board of County Commissioners for final approval. Additionally, the board discussed the upcoming development of a unified development ordinance to consolidate multiple standalone ordinances into a single, user-friendly document, with funding allocated in the FY 2026-27 budget. This project will involve public outreach, consultant selection, and a multi-year timeline to better manage growth and development in the county. Other informational items included ongoing community development programs and infrastructure projects such as the White Horse Station waterline extension.
