ZONES!!!  In this week's episode, we'll explore Zoning in our communities.  Zoning dates back to the earliest twentieth century and is still applied to communities today.  Although zoning laws and regulations have played both a negative or positive role in our communities, Form-Based Zoning is one tool that city leaders are using to re-imagine their communities and moving away from the separation of uses.  Zoning plays such an important part in how and why our cities look the way they do but do you know how it applies to you?  Do you know some of the differences between a Planning Commission and a Board of Zoning Appeals?  Do you even know what zoning district you live or work in?  Listen in as we discuss how zoning can be a good thing if applied correctly.
