LUPZ Hearings for Overlay Zone Changes

Posted on by

The City Council’s Land Use, Planning, and Zoning (LUPZ) committee will hear three proposed changes to Overlay zones in the Integrated Development Ordinance (IDO) on Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at 5 pm. This hybrid meeting takes place at City Hall, 9th Floor, Council Committee Room, and via Zoom. See Zoom details below. 

These small area amendments will be reviewed/decided as a quasi-judicial matter, meaning City Councilors will be acting as judges rather than as legislators. For that reason, the public may not speak to Councilors directly outside of a hearing about these proposed small area amendments. For questions regarding these proposals, please contact the Council Planning Manager, Shanna Schultz:
