August 10, 2017 I Volume 11 I Issue 15 Zoning Bulletin <br />OHIO <br />Reportedly, a state legislative conference committee has voted to reject an <br />amendment to the budget bill that would have eased restrictive state zoning <br />requirements on wind farms. The bill was expected to be voted on and signed <br />into legislation by Governor Kasich before June 30th. <br />S ource: Cleveland. com; www. cleveland. coin <br />PENNSYLVANIA <br />In an effort to increase affordable housing options, Philadelphia City <br />Council members have introduced a bill that "would require that every major <br />development [of projects with more than nine units], whether housing or rent- <br />als, include reduced -priced units," with "[t]en percent of the units . . . priced <br />for the working poor." The bill would provide "inclusionary housing bonuses," <br />through zoning incentives that include allowing developers to construct build- <br />ings that are "taller and denser than Philadelphia's zoning code normally <br />allows." <br />S ource: Philly. coin; www.vhillv.com <br />12 ©2017 Thomson Reuters <br />
