Zoning and Its Impacts on Architecture and
the Community
"All
development impacts communities. Some build communities, some harm them. Topics of this course include: bulk and use zoning
concepts; the technical aspects of zoning that are a part of all new development (e.g., sky exposure plane ratios, set-back
requirements, and yard requirements help maintain ventilation and light/air); shadow analysis scenarios and the impact of
community review of the development process; variances and zoning changes."
