The October 6, 2025, Board Meeting of Princeton, North Carolina, focused on several key agenda items, primarily concerning updates to local ordinances and a special use permit request.

The meeting commenced with a discussion on proposed amendments to the subdivision ordinance. The current language, which was found to be contradictory to the county's regulations, was revised to align with the county's requirements. The new ordinance stipulates that subdivisions with up to 99 lots must have one entrance, while those with 100 to 199 lots require a secondary entrance. For subdivisions exceeding 200 lots, a minimum of two separate entrance points is mandated. This proposal received unanimous support from the planning board and was subsequently approved by the commissioners.

Following this, the board addressed an amendment to zoning ordinances to include townhome regulations within the R-4 district. The proposed changes aim to differentiate townhomes from other multifamily units, establishing specific construction requirements, including minimum lot sizes and parking space allocations. The planning board also unanimously recommended this amendment, which was approved by the board.

The meeting then shifted to a public hearing regarding a special use permit for a property located at 600 Doctor Donnie H Jones Boulevard. Jackson Weekes of Weekes Holdings LLC requested permission to add gravel to the lot for parking and storage of recreational vehicles. The proposal includes measures to manage water runoff through a dry basin, adhering to best practices for watershed management. After a thorough discussion, including concerns about drainage and screening, the board approved the special use permit.

In summary, the meeting resulted in the adoption of revised subdivision and townhome ordinances, as well as the approval of a special use permit for recreational vehicle storage, reflecting the board's commitment to aligning local regulations with county standards and addressing community needs.
