Presentation: Bob Azar, Providence Planning Department

Monday, November 18, 7pm

Summit Commons, 99 Hillside Ave, Providence

The presentation will summarize the Technical Review and Approaches Report for Re:Zoning Providence. (Report http://rezoningprovidence.com/presentations-reports/). Re:Zoning Providence will be a comprehensive overhaul of the City Zoning Ordinance. The staff is writing the first draft of that ordinance.

 From 2005 to 2012, an interim comprehensive plan was created and neighborhood charrettes and neighborhood plans were completed for each of Providence’s twenty‐five neighborhoods. In 2012, the comprehensive plan was updated to reflect those goals. The City’s comprehensive plan, Providence Tomorrow, http://www.providenceri.com/planning/planning-projects/comprehensive-planning and the neighborhood plans http://www.providenceri.com/planning/planning-projects/neighborhood-planning are now completed. The city seeks public input.
