Form-Based Zoning

This article examines what a hybrid code is and why it’s not a viable alternative to form-based codes. It highlights the lack of the form standards in hybrid codes and that the hyper-control of use continues. It includes recommendations on how to best create form-based codes as well as examples on how other municipalities have integrated these codes.
