ZoningZoning is the laws that control how land is used and developed in certain areas, or districts, of a specific area like a city or town. A zoning ordinance or code is where are the very specific rules are organized.
Brookfield ZoningThe Brookfield Zoning Ordinance is Chapter 62 of the Village Municipal Code. As part of the 2017 zoning modernization efforts, a form-based zoning code was developed for areas surrounding the Metra stations and Ogden Avenue. The Station Area Districts Plan is a part of the Zoning Ordinance but can be downloaded as a separate document.
