Garodnick outlines the proposed changes to streamline zoning rules in low-density districts. The goal is to make it possible once again to build appropriate housing types in these areas.
- Adjustments include changes to required heights, rear and side yard sizes, and zoning envelopes.
- These changes aim to make it easier for homeowners to get insurance and deal with city regulations.
- The proposed streamlining is intended to address the difficulties created by the current complex zoning rules.
