Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations Update
The City of Arlington has begun the process to update
the zoning ordinance and subdivision regulations.
The current version of the zoning ordinance and
subdivision regulations for The City of Arlington were
adopted in 1994 and 1987, respectively. The
zoning ordinance has been amended over 60 times since
its adoption, and the subdivision regulations had a
significant revision in 2003. These changes have
resulted in ordinances that are complex and contain a
number of redundancies and inconsistencies. The
City has not engaged in a comprehensive evaluation or
revision to the ordinances in almost 15 years.
