Walking tours will give Spartanburg residents up close look at zoning

City of Spartanburg residents will have the opportunity to learn more about ways the city might revamp its zoning regulations by taking part in "Sidewalk Conversations" guided walking tours on Nov. 14. A tour of the Union Street corridor and Converse Heights will take place from 8:30 to 11 a.m. A second tour will take place from 1 to 3:30 p.m. and cover and the North Church Street and South Converse areas. The tours will begin and end at the city administrative offices at 295 East Main St. Buses will take participants to the walking tour locations. The idea is to give residents perspectives on development patterns of the past and how they might apply to future city planning, said city communications manager Christopher George. George said the city's zoning ordinance hasn't been updated since the late 1990s. Other regulations have been in place since the 1970s, including larger residential lot sizes in keeping with the era's norms for suburban development. With input from residents, leaders will consider whether future zoning rules should allow additional areas of the city to have smaller residential lot sizes or mixed-use development projects.

Taylors Storage Site Could Become AI Hub, Greenville Council Vote Looms Nov. 17

A storage facility on Wade Hampton Boulevard in Taylors could soon house a small-scale artificial intelligence computing facility, with Greenville County Council set to take up the proposal on second reading next Tuesday, Nov. 17. The project would convert part of an existing building at the Prime Storage site — sandwiched between a Texas Roadhouse and a residential street — into what developers are calling an inference point, rather than demolishing anything or breaking ground on new construction.

Seneca Approves Initial Budget Adjustment for City Administrator Severance Agreement

Seneca officials unanimously passed the initial reading of Ordinance 2026-24, expanding the fiscal year 2026–27 general fund revenue and expenditures by $193,170—drawn directly from municipal reserves—to accommodate payroll and benefit adjustments linked to City Administrator Scott Moulder’s $500,000 settlement package. This action follows a prior decision to advance Moulder’s contractual departure date from May 2029 to December 31, 2026, under an early retirement arrangement where the municipality will purchase credits through the South Carolina Public Employee Benefit Authority (PEBA) to grant him 28 years of service and disburse the remaining balance of the $500,000 as a severance payout in exchange for a liability release, pending final ordinance approval by the local governing body.
