Everett Recodification

SOLUTIONS

, ,

CommunityScale led the complete rezoning of Everett, Massachusetts with Stantec’s Urban Places and BBHS Law, modernizing an outdated code to deliver the mayor’s vision of a walkable, mixed-use city. The work addressed mobility, new land use categories, a revised zoning map, economic development, and stormwater management, rewriting the ordinance to support contemporary growth. As Planning and Development Director Matthew Lattanzi noted, CommunityScale has collaborated with the city on several pivotal projects spanning zoning, design, and analysis, consistently bringing innovative, responsive solutions. The recodification gave Everett a coherent, modern framework aligned with its goals for housing and economic vitality.

CommunityScale is managing the complete rezoning of Everett, Massachusetts, along with project partners Stantec’s Urban Places and BBHS Law.

The goal of the initiative is to modernize the code while meeting the mayor’s vision of a walkable, mixed-use environment. Over the course of the next year, we will work with the City to address issues including mobility, outdated code, new land use, revising the zoning map, planning for economic development, and updating stormwater management.
