What's on this agenda

Pittsboro's Downtown Advisory Board had one action item on 2 June: a zoning text amendment creating a downtown overlay district, which the town's downtown development director presented and which the board was asked to recommend to the commissioners.

The rest was committee and staff reporting, plus a discussion of events for the 2026-27 year.

Summarized from the published agenda. Read the agenda itself before acting on it.

Meeting recap

What happened, drawn from the records published after the meeting. Minutes

The board recommended approval of the downtown overlay amendment, 7-0, on a motion seconded and carried. The vice-chair recused himself from the vote for a conflict of interest; the minutes record the tally as seven ayes and no nays. Agenda adoption and the May minutes each passed 7-0. Seven voting members made quorum, with the chair and one other member excused. Nobody spoke in the board comment period. The meeting ran from 5:00 to 6:02 p.m.

Staff told the board that a downtown shuttle is being worked out with Chatham Transit as a transit-on-demand service, and set three dates: a downtown stakeholders event and a board retreat on 23 June, and Main Street organization training on 24 June. The downtown development director was to present the board's work to the commissioners on 8 June. The design committee planned an evening walk downtown on 4 June to look for improvements.

How the votes went

Three recorded votes, all 7-0: adoption of the agenda, approval of the 5 May minutes, and a recommendation to approve ZTA-2026-10, the downtown overlay district amendment. The vice-chair recused himself on the last of these.

From the published minutes.
