1. Text Amendments to the Unified Development Ordinance (File #OA-01-26)
The Town of Southern Pines Planning Department is proposing text amendments to the Unified
Development Ordinance (UDO) for Planning Board and Town Council review and approval in accordance
with UDO ยง2.17. The amendments would remove UDO provisions requiring waiting periods for refiling
development applications, revise regulations for the placement of temporary political signs to align with
state law, and update Appendix B to reflect recent state legislation limiting local pavement design
standards to NCDOT minimums. Additional Appendix B revisions clarify roadway base testing, update
asphalt specifications, ensure ADA compliance, and refine sight distance measurement standards.
