SCJ led the update to the City’s comprehensive plan and zoning ordinance, focusing on closely connecting comprehensive plan policy to the rules that implement it. The updated ordinance will improve the efficiency of the land development process by streamlining administrative review, approval, and permitting for routine matters— improving internal consistency and planning breadth. Further, the plan and ordinance will support the preservation, establish a community vision, provide a predictable set of policies and regulations for the community, developers, and city officials, and create a user-friendly and intuitive document. Specific elements included: zoning review, code review and integration, permitting process development, comprehensive planning, and policy analysis. After the initial study on code revisions, the City made more surgical updates to the zoning ordinance to tackle immediate needs. Work on the zoning will likely continue once the City Council adopts the comprehensive plan’s policies, and the City is planning to hire members of the SCJ team to perform those updates.
