The City of Pocatello’s Planning & Development Services Department, in consultation with Town Planning & Urban Design Collaborative, LLC, is inviting community members to help shape the future of Pocatello’s zoning regulations at a virtual kickoff for the City’s Zoning Code rewrite project.
The virtual meeting will take place Tuesday, September 15, at 6 p.m. Attendees will learn about the project’s goals, timeline, and public engagement process and will have an opportunity to share ideas and provide feedback.
The City is hosting the kickoff virtually to make it easier for more people to participate. Whether you are at home, traveling, or simply unable to attend in person, the online format provides a convenient way to join the conversation.
Additional in-person opportunities for public input will be offered as the project moves forward. Community feedback will play an important role throughout the Zoning Code rewrite.
