The Providence Committee on Ordinance met on February 11 to consider three zoning-related ordinances: a rezoning to allow an auto-repair use at a Union Avenue/Comerford property, updates to building design standards, and a citywide zoning text update to align with state law. All three items passed after public testimony and staff explanations; several residents raised concerns about notice rights for renters and construction costs.
