# Waxhaw's Planning Board Meeting - September 24 2026, 6:00pm

The Town of Waxhaw, North Carolina, held a combined Board of Adjustment and Planning Board meeting on September 24, 2026. The Board of Adjustment considered a variance request from Colony Builders for the property at 3510 Providence Road South. The variance sought relief from the maximum front setback requirement in the neighborhood center zoning district due to a North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) drainage and utility easement occupying the allowable front setback area. After a quasi-judicial evidentiary hearing with sworn testimony and detailed discussion of the zoning code, easement impacts, and site plans, the Board unanimously approved the variance, allowing the building to be set back approximately 39 feet from the NCDOT right of way, exceeding the usual 20-foot maximum setback. The Planning Board portion of the meeting included approval of minutes and a workshop featuring training modules on land use planning, development regulations, and the roles of planning boards in North Carolina. The workshop covered comprehensive plans, zoning, subdivision regulations, types of development decisions, and conditional zoning. The meeting concluded with acknowledgments and adjournment.
