Zoning <br /> <br />As a community which is almost fully developed; New <br />Brighton is not anticipating major development activity... <br />Zoning and subdivision regulations and the City's capital <br />improvement plan have proven in the past to be adequate; <br />to guide the City's development. These tools will be the <br />primary implementing devices for the comprehensive plan. <br />Some revisions and "tine-tuning" are needed in these ordi- . <br />nances bit no major .changes are contemplated. In addition; <br />the City has a number of specific ordinances covering various <br />aspects of environmental protection which will continue <br />in force. <br />New Brighton's primary control on development will con- <br />tinue to be its zoning ordinance: A comprehensive rezoning <br />will be instituted after adoption of the comprehensive plan <br />in order to make zoning consistent with the, proposed land <br />use categories. <br />The proposed zoning districts are described below.
