Carol Nelson-Burns, Planning Commission Clerk
Rob Quinn: The new code emerges from government’s responsibility to update codes periodically to reflect legal and practical changes in the community unit, beginning with a revised Master Plan that necessitates changes in the zoning code so that it is consistent with the master plan. The purpose of revision is to simplify and make more coherent these related documents.
