The purpose of this ordinance is to establish procedures and standards for the development
and subdivision of land within the planning jurisdiction of the Town of Smithfield,
N. C. It is further designed to provide for the orderly growth and development of
the Town; for the coordination of streets and highways within proposed subdivisions
with existing or planned streets and highways and with other public facilities; for
the dedication or reservation of recreation areas serving residents of the immediate
neighborhood within the subdivision and of rights-of-way or easements for street and
utility purposes; and for the distribution of population and traffic in a manner that
will avoid congestion and overcrowding and will create conditions essential to public
health, safety, and the general welfare. This ordinance is designed to further facilitate
adequate provision of water, sewerage, parks, schools, and playgrounds, and also to
facilitate the further resubdivision of larger tracts into smaller parcels of land.
