BIA/Lexington County Quarterly Meeting

BIA Members are invited to quarterly meetings with staff of Lexington County to discuss various topics concerning land development and the residential building process. Our goal is to open lines of communication between builders and county staff to foster a good working relationship and work through any issues of concern before they become problematic.

Members are asked to register in advance for these meetings.
See the agenda for this meeting below.
