Citywide Zoning Update: Public Hearing 5/26/10

The City of Oakland Strategic Planning Division cordially invites you to attend a meeting of the Zoning Update Committee (ZUC), a subcommittee of the Oakland Planning Commission, to discuss the update of commercial and residential zoning regulations, including the proposed framework and an introduction to the draft zoning chapters. ZUC meeting details follow:

Date: Wednesday, May 26, 2010

Time: 4:00 p.m.

Location: Oakland City Hall, Hearing Room 1, One Frank Ogawa Plaza

ZUC meetings are part of the roll-out and adoption process for the proposed new commercial and residential zones. Staff anticipates three to five meetings at the ZUC to review the framework for the proposed new zones and draft zoning text and mapping proposals. The ZUC will review and deliberate on the proposals, as well as take public testimony about the zoning proposals. All interested parties are welcome to attend and present comments on the draft zoning text and mapping proposals.

In addition to the ZUC meetings, the commercial and residential zoning update adoption process will also involve meetings at the full Planning Commission, anticipated in the fall of 2010, and moving on to the City Council, starting with its Community and Economic Development Committee, in the winter of 2010.

Please forward this to your neighbors, friends, churches and others who may be interested in this process!
