Village of Fairport's Zoning Code Update
Village of Fairport's Zoning Code Update
With GTC's support of federal planning funds, the Village of Fairport, Monroe County, is updating its zoning code and map to align with its Comprehensive Plan to strengthen walkability, traffic circulation, safety and the character of the village with an emphasis on multi-modal transportation options. The updated, character-based code will provide more choice and expand the opportunities for not only travel, but economic development and housing. Visit the project webpage on the Village's website for more information.
This project is Task No. 7801 listed in the 2024-2025 Unified Planning Work Program.
