In April 2001, Southside Place citizens began an exciting planning process to update several fifty-year old zoning regulation documents. This thirteen (13) month planning effort resulted in the preparation of the Southside Place Comprehensive Plan. The adopted comprehensive plan will now assist Southside Place and its citizens in developing new rules and regulations governing zoning and land uses.

The first of a series of monthly community workshops began on August 20, 2002 at city hall. During the next eight months, the Planning and Zoning Commission will be holding a series of community workshops to discuss and review contents of a proposed Land Use

and Development Handbook.

During the next five months, planning topics at the monthly workshops will include:

1. Zoning Districts and Uses

2. Development and Design Standards

3. Subdivision Regulations

4. Board of Adjustment Procedures
