Zone Change
The City or an individual may wish to change a zone on a parcel of land. This is called a Zone Change. Since a Zone Change is required by law to be consistent with the General Plan, many times it may also require a General Plan Amendment. In order to process a Zone Change one must complete the Legislative Application and pay the required fees. The reviews will include the Environmental Review Committee, Planning Commission, and the City Council who will take final action. In addition another requirement of this application will be a Socio-Economic Cost Benefit Analysis. For the details of the meetings involved please refer to the Development Applications Introductionpage.
A Zone Change modifies the land use district of a specific parcel. Another type of change is to a development standard, an allowed use, or other text in the Municipal Code. This would require an Ordinance Text Amendment which would change that standard City-Wide. In addition to the Legislative Application and required fees the applicant must submit in writing the exact changes to the ordinance. The reviews will include the Environmental Review Committee, Planning Commission, and the City Council who will take final action. A Socio-Economic Cost Benefit Analysis will only be required if the Zone Change or Ordinance Text Amendment is linked to a Development Application . For the details of the meetings involved please refer to the Development Applications Introductionpage.
