“Many of the recommended changes close identified gaps in the current code and should be advanced. These that should be advanced include emergency fire response access, traffic movement, and vehicle circulation. Developments with more than 10 dwelling units must follow the subdivision construction manual and the bridge and culvert crossing regulations. And new regulations for drainage and stormwater management. Those are all good ideas.”
