Did you miss the workshop? Visit my website to read more about this issue and other topics that affect Lake Wylie waterfront property owners.
The York County Planning & Development Services Department has invited all of the Lake Wylie community to a workshop regarding the river buffer. The staff will facilitate a discussion to obtain input on recommendations for future ordinances, and to develop a Best Management Practices Manual. The manual will provide guidelines for the protection of the waters of Lake Wylie and tributaries of the Catawba River.
This is a hot topic among property owners, developers, and environmental organizations such as the Catawba Riverkeepers Foundation. Some want all construction prohibited within the buffer zone, others want limited construction permitted, and some want no buffer regulations at all.
The purpose of the buffer is to protect water quality by keeping construction runoff from entering the lake. However, some man-made improvements can actually help in these efforts. The proposed changes in the ordinance will define what is allowed, and whether or not variances are permitted.
If you'd like to become involved, call Dave Pettine, the zoning administrator, at 803-909-7234.
Plan to be involved in the workshop - scheduled Dec. 12 6-8pm, at Crowders Creek Elementary on Hwy 49 in Lake Wylie.
