Ward 4 Meeting at Burr School – Presentation on Zoning Redesign – March 7th 6.45 p.m.

Neighbors:

There will be a presentation by the City’s planning dept. on the proposed new zoning ordinance Thursday evening March 7th,  at Burr School.

The presentation begins at 6.45 p.m.  I expect that the Planning Dept. will take questions.

You can read the first draft of the ordinance and find a link to the zoning map ( proposed ) here: http://www.newtonma.gov/gov/planning/lrplan/zoning_redesign.asp

There is a lot to this effort, the first comprehensive change to our zoning ordinance in 70+ years.   BTW, I believe much of our immediate neighborhoods here in Ward 4 ( Auburndale and Lower Falls ) is proposed as an R2 district.  Details about R2 are in the draft.

I hope to see you on Thursday night.  Apologies to those getting duplicate emails, I am hitting all of the listservs that I can.

Regards,

Chris
