Stewart assisted with developing a new Land Use Plan and update to the Unified Development Ordinance for the Town of Ayden, NC. By utilizing the Stewart team’s experience in both long range planning and development, the project prompted the community to address multiple topics over a long-time horizon, and contemplate how a development ordinance could incrementally achieve the vision in the near term. This parallel process relied on a well-structured public engagement strategy, data-rich mapping, and strong visual communication skills to help the community see both the big picture and the essential details of implementation.
The Town’s development regulations have been modernized and organized to a more user-friendly UDO.
