Downtown zoning rules on agenda Wednesday night

Here's a note that City Planner Alan Weiner sent out the other day that I forgot until now to post:

This is to remind you that the Bristol Zoning Commission will be holding a public information session on Wednesday, January 30, 2008, in the City Council Chambers in City Hall, beginning at 6:30 PM regarding its proposed amendments to the Downtown Business (BD) zone provisions of the city's Zoning Regulations and Zoning Map. A copy of the meeting agenda is enclosed for your information.

As previously noted, the purpose of this meeting is to give the Commission an opportunity to explain the proposed amendments and answer any questions that the public might have about them, as well as to give all interested parties an opportunity to comment about the proposed amendments in an "informal" setting (i.e., not in the context of a formal public hearing).

To view and download the proposed amendments (as well as other supporting materials), go to http://www.ci.bristol.ct.us/content/3326/8362/default.aspx

If you have any questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact the Land Use Office by telephone at 860/584-6225 or by e-mail at landuseoffice@ci.bristol.ct.us. Thanks in advance for your interest and participation in this important process.

And here's the meeting agenda:
