Our MISSION is to facilitate information to Residents with the PURPOSE of increasing community awareness & involvement.
Special interest groups will need to convince 60% of the voters versus only 5 councilmembers. Voting YES returns the power to the residents.
The Council recently approved adding +/- 1500 apartments, increasing traffic by an estimated 2500 additional cars in Pinecrest. (read the Vision Plan - the zoning changes - Comprehensive Plan Amendments)
Wouldn't you want to have the final say if they want to add more?
Our building codes are set to allow large homes with mixed architectural styles with few design requirements or limitations. Under Amendment 4.11 Splitting large parcels is still allowed and does not require a zoning change or a special election.
Under Article 4 titled, Legislative we are adding one additional amendment section 4.11 titled:
“Approval by Vote of Electors Required for Amendments to Land Development Regulations”.
“No text amendment to the zoning code or other land development regulations that would create a new zoning district, or that would amend any definition of a term used in the land development regulations, or that would have the effect of allowing a use not currently permitted, increased residential density, additional hotel or other accommodation units per acre, or increased lot coverage, height, or floor area ratio, shall be effective until approved by 60% of the electors voting on the amendment.”
If successful Amendment 4.11 will change our charter allowing residents to vote on future zoning and land development regulations.
By changing the law, residents will protect the Village regardless of future mayors and future elected council members that have a different "Vision" for Pinecrest.
Amendment 4.11 puts the power back in the hands of the residents. It's our Village & we should vote on future zoning changes that will impact our quality of life for generations to come.
Our goal is to keep Pinecrest the way it is.
