PLANNING 11
Occasionally, the Town uses the Code of
Ordinances
to
ensure
dilapidated
structures are properly secured. It can
often take months for a property owner to
bring their property into compliance.
If a property owner is unable to bring a
property into compliance, the Town can
remove a structure that is structurally
unsafe. Below is an example of an
abandoned home located at 611 Church
Street that was structurally unsafe, and
subsequently demolished by the Town this
quarter.
Sign Code Update
The Town of Morrisville welcomed a consultant
for the sign code update on July 11 and 12 to
kick-off the project and conduct a number of
stakeholder interviews. A report of key
recommendations is currently in progress and
will be presented at public meetings before the
Town Council and Planning & Zoning Board by
the end of the year.
After presentations and further discussion, the
consultant will begin drafting proposed text
changes to the sign code, and a public hearing
will be held. Completion of the project is
expected in summer of 2018.
