THE HISTORY OF THE CIC……..
‘On a brighter note, our own members have initiated and worked successfully to pass the following:
* The 1998 Height Limit Charter Referendum (3 stories over 1st floor parking).’
‘Along with the 2004 LBTS Voters-Rights Amendment, one of the new ‘CIC’s greatest accomplish-
ments was the introduction by petition – and the passage, despite fierce campaigns by developers and pro-development commissioners, of a townwide 44 ft. height limit in 2006. This charter amendment will prevent our barrier island from overdevelopment, limit further congestion along A1A, and preserve the Town’s low-rise image. The amendment also includes a provision that takes residential rezoning out of the hands of the Commission and requires referendum votes on any rezoning whatsoever in residential areas.’
