The Zoning Ordinance allows the District Council to change the underlying, or base zoning of properties in the Safety Zones and the High Intensity Noise Areas. If you plan on testifying at the April 5, 2016 Public Hearing in support of the intensification of your zoning, you needed to complete a state ethics affidavit by the deadline contained in your notice letter. Find out who to contact for more information.
