Work Session Items
1. Ordinance: Mixed-Use (MU) Zoning Consolidation Zoning Text
~ 2:00 p.m.
and Map Amendment Follow-up
30 min.
The Council will receive a follow-up briefing on a proposal that would amend the City's
zoning ordinance and zoning map by consolidating up to 27 existing commercial, form-
based, and mixed-use zoning districts into six new mixed-use (MU) districts. The
proposal aims to simplify zoning regulations, improve clarity of language, and
incorporate missing design standards. The new mixed-use districts will be similar to the
current districts but will have changes to setbacks, building height, lot coverage, and
permitted land uses. Other sections of Title 21A may also be amended as part of this
petition.
