Martin Kidston(Missoula Current) The city's push to complete a sweeping update to its zoning and building regulations through code reform continued to advance this week, with final adoption anticipated by the end of the month.
On Wednesday, members of the City Council killed an increase in building heights in certain districts and pushed parking requirements to the second phase of code reform.
Council member Mirtha Becerra said the changes address the importance of walkability and connectivity within the city.
Landscaping requirements in the new code won't be resolved until next week, when council members are expected to make a final decision on the issue.
Among other things, the section of code will set the amount of landscaping required based upon gross floor area or building additions.
