Mixed-Use Zoning

The current zoning map of the development district reflects years of uncoordinated, site specific, zoning decisions have left a mishmash of adjacent land use categories.  In order to bring some order to this situation, in 2001 the City Planning Department, in collaboration with central city redevelopment organizations, secured the approval of the City Council to create two new categories of zoning that allow, by legal right, a property owner to have more than one use on a given parcel of land.  This change in city policy is described in attached guide to Fort Worth's Mixed-Use zoning classifications. 

There are incentives integrated into the MU zoning such as a reduction in parking requirements for new developments.
