Zoning Codes

To read an individual ordinance, click once on the name.

Ordinance #135: to amend Ordinance #37 to add thereto Minimum Size and Public Street Frontage Requirements for all Lots in a Residential Subdivision.

Note that the existing requirements for all new subdivisions within the city limits is for lots with a minimum size of 35,000 square feet and with a minimum street frontage of 175 feet. The trend on the Mountain in the last two decades has been for lots exceeding this minimum size.  The proposed change in our zoning laws would more than cut in half or leave open the minimum acreage and thus dramatically increase the density.

  • Ordinance #37: regulating the Subdivision of Land
  • Ordinance #224: amending Ordinance #37 to require sewer engineering and storm water impact studies in connection with new subdivision development
  • Ordinance #226: to control post-development storm water runoff
  • Ordinance #214: erosion and sedimentation control
  • Ordinance #25: prescribing a Zoning Plan
  • Ordinance #43: amending Ordinance #25 to add a Multiple-family Dwelling District
  • Ordinance # 56: amending Ordinance #25 as amended by Ordinance #43 to further delineate the boundaries of the  Multiple Family Dwelling District
  • Ordinance #75: amending Ordinance #25 as amended by Ordinances #43 and #56 to further delineate the boundaries of the  Multiple Family Dwelling District
  • Ordinance #99: amending Ordinance #25  as amended by Ordinances #43, #56, and #75 to further delineate the boundaries of the Multiple Family Dwelling District
  • Ordinance #52: amending Ordinance #25 to add sewage treatment facilities
