Cohasset Village Business District Zoning

Courtesy Morris Beacon Design

Working with Carr, Lynch and Sandell, Morris Beacon design and FXM Associates on behalf of the Town of Cohasset, Concord Square drafted and brought forward zoning amendments to Town Meeting for the community’s Village Business District. After conducting a survey of the district’s business owners, a community visioning workshop was held that helped formulate the ideas behind the zoning amendments. Then, through close work with the Planning Board, the amendments were passed at Town Meeting in November of 2007. The amendments introduced the concept of Floor Area Ratio (FAR) to the Town and allow as-of-right mixed-use development within the district. Concord Square is working with the Planning Board on an ongoing basis to prepare Design Guidelines and a parking management plan for the Village Business District.
