Official Text

To the Honorable Board of Aldermen:

 

I hereby submit for your Honorable Board's consideration and approval the new version of the zoning ordinance overhaul that reflects the extensive public process, technical analysis and follow-up meetings that we have completed since 2015. 

 

As with the last draft, this is a new ordinance overhauling and superseding the current zoning ordinance as adopted on March 23, 1990, and subsequently amended.

 

This new zoning ordinance implements over 100 goals, policies and actions spelled out in the SomerVision comprehensive plan.

 

My staff and I look forward to discussing this amendment with your Honorable Board.

 

Respectfully submitted,

 

Joseph A. Curtatone

Mayor
