Future Land Use Map: parcel-level map, compressed categories and more zoning flexibility

Terrell presented details of the parcel-level Future Land Use Map and the rationale for compressing the current 19 designations into nine broader categories while expanding zoning categories that may apply within those designations. "We're compressing our residential categories… Residential Low and Residential High," Terrell said, noting that expanded zoning categories will allow the city to address nuances like height and density through Build Spokane rather than through the land use map alone.
