According to planners, the <br />proposed zoning law changes "will make the city greener and more bike- and <br />pedestrian -friendly while easing the path to high -density, mixed -use <br />development." The "Indy Rezone" is reportedly the product of nearly two <br />years of work, made possible by a $1.2 million grant from the U.S. Depart- <br />ment of Housing and Urban Development. <br />Source: Indianapolis Business Journal; www.ibi.com <br />MARYLAND <br />Arundel County is considering a bill that would ban rubble landfills from <br />residential zones, instead limiting them to industrial areas. <br />Source: The Baltimore Sun; htm://articles.baltimoresun.com <br />VIRGINIA <br />Fairfax County residents may face limits on the number of people they can <br />host at their home. Under a proposed zoning ordinance, the county would <br />make it illegal to have more than 49 people in a home three times within a 40- <br />day period. The ordinance was aimed at stopping large house parties, but crit- <br />ics say it would "punish church groups, scout troops and even real estate open <br />houses." <br />Source: MyFoxDC; www.mvfoxdc.com <br />12 © 2014 Thomson Reuters <br />
