The draft Chapter 347: Zoning & Land Use Regulations has restructured Article II - Zoning Districts, Rules & Regulations and Article III - Supplementary Zoning Regulations to provide more clarity and consistency.
The restructuring has eliminated the existing "layered" structure of bulk regulations in the current Zoning chapter. Under the current framework, bulk regulations are referred across zone districts, creating a cumbersome reference process to determine regulations. The new Chapter now has unique zone regulations for each zone district, creating a clearer reference for users.
In addition, tables of allowed uses in commercial and residential districts have been added to more clearly display principal, accessory, conditional and not allowed uses. Also, special use standards are provided with code section references.
