Moratorium Amendment 2

At last week's Lenoir City council meeting, council did pass the amendment to the apartment moratorium. The amendment purports to add additional restrictions to the moratorium for any projects that haven't already met certain requirements. The moratorium was passed back in June and was to be in place at least 12 months but could be extended. It's unclear why the moratorium needed the amendments.   

To be clear, the moratorium is only on apartments/multifamily developments. It does not extend to R-3, high density single family developments. Meaning a DR Horton or other like developer could still build hundreds of homes unrestricted.
