Zoning Chapter 15 - New Code Adopted May 6, 2025
The city repealed and recreated the whole zoning chapter, with the goals to:
- Streamline and simplify permitting and development review processes, such as removing conditional uses, developing site design standards, and allowing administrative approvals of minor zoning regulations.
- Address levy limits and housing needs, to allow varying land uses and context-sensitive density increases, permitting 1-2 dwelling unit buildings in residential areas and growth in key corridors.
- Create a framework for easier updates over time as city and market conditions change.
