This project began in 2009 as an effort to rewrite the City’s zoning code (Redmond Community Development Guide) and will continue through adoption of a new code in spring 2011.

The Commission’s anticipated review schedule including topics, timing and appropriate staff contacts is listed below. If you have comments or suggestions related to any of these topics, please contact the staff person listed.
