Update on Rochester’s Zoning Alignment (ZAP) Project

The City’s last comprehensive look at its Zoning Code took place in 2003. Since then, the City has changed; new residents, new businesses, new priorities, emerging trends, and a new vision for the future necessitate a comprehensive look at the City’s development regulations. This is an important task to allow for implementation of the City’s Comprehensive Plan – its vision – as many of the zoning district regulations currently in place may not relate to the current built environment, creating nonconformities, or may not allow for certain forms of development that the community has indicated that it desires. Learn more about the Rochester Zoning Alignment Project. The City Planning Commission provides the City Council with recommendations on amendments to zoning texts and maps. Find out more.
