Newark council voted 5-3 to approve new law for land use and development

From TAPinto Newark.

Newark council voted 5-3 to approve new law for land use and development on Nov. 1. The vote came after a campaign by community groups to delay the vote to secure greater resident participation in zoning and planning decisions. The changes are expected to hasten commercial development in residential zones of the city.
