The Development Review Division of OP provides analysis, reports, and recommendations on all cases before the Zoning Commission or the Board of Zoning Adjustment, to ensure that new discretionary development furthers the Comprehensive Plan for the District, addresses neighborhood character, and is consistent with the intent of the zoning regulations. OP is also the applicant for new cases before the Zoning Commission, recommending changes to the zoning text or zoning maps.

For more information about the Zoning Commission and Board of Zoning Adjustment, or to view the complete record or scheduling of specific cases, refer to the Office of Zoning website.
