The City is in the process of updating its zoning code to match the development guidelines of Minneapolis 2040, the City’s Comprehensive Plan approved by City Council in 2018. This technical process will take several years, during which the public will have opportunities to review and comment on specific guidelines and regulations.

Next up for public comment are changes to draft built form regulations, which govern issues such as: building height, floor area ratio (FAR), lot sizes and setbacks from property lines, among other things. The deadline for written comments on these regulations is October 19.
