Brunswick County Planning is hosting a series of community meetings this month to get residents’ opinions on updating and modernizing the county’s unified development ordinance.
The ordinance, referred to as an UDO, is a document that contains planning, zoning, and land use rules adopted by the county.

Each in-person community meeting will have an informal, open house-style format with planning staff on hand to talk with and answer questions from members of the public who attend.
Feedback received at the meetings will be incorporated into revisions to the UDO, which helps guide growth and development in the unincorporated areas of the county and supports the goals established in the Blueprint Brunswick Land Use Plan.
The county’s planning board and board of commissioners will consider updates to the UDO at a later date, according to a release.
The meetings will be held from 6-8 p.m. on the following dates and locations:
- Jan. 27: Town Creek Park Community Building, 6420 Ocean Highway E., Winnabow.
- Jan. 29: St. James Community Center, 4136 Southport-Supply Road SE, St. James.
- Jan. 30: The Brunswick Center at Shallotte, 3620 Express Drive, Shallotte.
Community members who have questions and cannot attend one of the meetings may Kirstie Dixon, the county’s planning and community enforcement director at 910-253-2027 or kirstie.dixon@brunswickcountync.gov or deputy director Marc Pages at 910-253-2056 or marc.pages@brunswickcountync.gov
