What is the Zoning Code?
The Zoning Code is the set of rules that identifies how individual properties within the City can be used. It also sets standards for how buildings may be developed or changed. The Zoning Code is structured by dividing the City into districts and then identifying what can occur in each district. The Zoning Map shows where the City’s zoning districts are located.
The Zoning Code also has standards that apply to all districts, such as parking, landscaping, screening, signage, etc. State law requires that the Zoning Code’s regulations are consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan.
What is the 2040 Comprehensive Plan?
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan is a document that is a tool for guiding the growth, redevelopment, and overall improvement of the City. While the most recognized part of the Comprehensive Plan is its land use plan, the plan also includes goals, objectives, and strategies that direct actions related to housing, economic development, transportation, parks, trails, open space, environmental protection, and utilities. To meet state law and to ensure that the Comprehensive Plan is reflective of the community’s vision and current trends, the Comprehensive Plan is updated every 10 years. The most recent Comprehensive Plan, which was adopted in 2020, looks out to 2040. More information about the 2040 Comprehensive Plan can be found on the City’s webpage at www.cityofroseville.com/CompPlan.
