Zoning Code Evaluation Underway
ZCC REGULAR SESSION
Don Elliott of Clarion Associates reported that the consultant team is currently evaluating the existing zoning code, conducting code user interviews, and setting up district meetings. ZCC members and consultants decided to plan all 10 public outreach sessions for January and February of next year. Two are already scheduled: January 27 in the 9th District and February 5 in the 1st. Details on the time and location of each meeting will be posted at www.zoningmatters.org. Consultants reported that the on-line survey, also posted on the Zoning Matters website, has generated about 600 responses to date and that the code user interviews are providing valuable insight as well. Interviews are generally grouped by profession – architects, developers, planners, etc – although some meetings are mixed. To participate in the interview process, you may contact the ZCC or the PCPC at 215-683-4600. The interview process will continue through the end of January. A report evaluating the existing code from the perspective of both code users and technical consultants will be delayed until March.
