Zoning Q&A

Today, we had a representative from Somerville’s Office of Strategic Planning and Community Development committee sit with the Climate Coalition of Somerville to talk turkey. It was great session because we could really hear from the author of the new code himself, who has experience writing zoning codes across the country. All in preparation to provide public feedback to the city by March 13.
