For many construction projects, the first step is to combine or split existing zone lots into new land areas for future development. Zone lot boundaries may be changed as long as the new lots still meet zoning standards for development (e.g., minimum lot size, street frontage, land use type, and so on).
Often times, a zone lot amendment will also mean realigning the underlying tax parcels (which may not always mirror the zone lot boundaries), property addresses, or subdivision lots.
To improve the likelihood of a successful outcome, zoning staff are offering a
free, pre-application meeting to discuss development impacts, survey requirements, and other implications of a zone lot amendment at an early stage in your project. Appointments are available by request, and are highly recommended for commercial/multifamily projects and any zone lots that contain existing structures.
