Tucson is seeing more and more car washes and drive-thrus pop up all over the city.City leaders say that has a lot to do with the city’s zoning code. Now they are looking at ways to change those restrictions to encourage more housing development.Following success in other cities like Austin and Minneapolis, the city wants to encourage more multi-family, pedestrian and transit-oriented housing along arterial and collector street corridors.
Bursuck says the city is still finalizing its plan but it’s looking at loosening rules like reducing building setbacks, reducing or removing parking requirements for new housing and adding to the maximum building height.He says the focus will be on sites taking up large chunks of land like struggling commercial spaces and empty parking lots.
