B. Public Hearing: A Public Hearing to receive input regarding a

Section 155.054, Greenspace Preservation Plan.
New Section 155.054 will incorporate certain provisions from
deleted Section 155.073, as well as establish intent, purpose, and
standards for new subdivision review requirements, which will
include clustered areas of preservation and internal areas of
preservation and greenspace.
In conjunction with proposed amendments to Chapter 156, Zoning
Code, these amendments are intended to provide better natural and
greenspace both within new residential development and to provide
a buffer along streets where new development is occurring.
C. Public Hearing: A Public Hearing to receive input on a proposal to
amend and restate the Development Agreement by and between PC
Palmetto Investments, LLC, and the Town of Mount Pleasant, for the
development known as Liberty Hill Farms.
Proposed is to “completely amend and replace the Original
Development Agreement” which was adopted on December 13,
2016 and set to terminate five (5) years thereafter, and to enter into
this new proposed “Amended and Restated Development
Agreement”, which, if adopted, will commence on the Agreement
Date and terminate five (5) years thereafter. The current zoning
classification of CL, Cultural Landscape, for the Liberty Hill Farms
Development, consisting of detached single-family residential uses,
attached single-family residential uses, open space areas, a trail
system, and a community farm and other neighborhood amendities,
is not proposed to change.
