Marion Zoning Code Update

Planning & Development

YOUR OPINION MATTERS!!!

The City of Marion is still in the process of updateing the Marion Zonnig Ordinance and is soliciting public comments regarding the proposed changes and future amendments.

Changes to the Zoning Ordinance primarily deal with District Definitions and Intents, District Use Lists and Bulk regulations, i.e. side, rear and front yard setbacks, height restrictions, building densities, etc.  In addition to the text update the Marion Zoning Map is also proposed to be amended to better reflect current use of the land and future uses based on the Marion Future Land Use Map.

PLEASE REVIEW THE PROPOSED ZONING ORDINANCE AT THE WEBSITE BELOW.
