City of Janesville

The City of Janesville adopted zoning regulations more than 60 years ago to guide how land in our community is used and developed. Given the pivotal role these regulations have on the City’s continued growth and success, we’ve undertaken a significant project to review them to see what’s working well and what improvements can be made to make them easier to understand and more suited to meet the needs of our residents and businesses.

At this point, no final decisions have been made. City staff has been working with the consultant to identify issues and providing input on various drafts of the code. The Plan Commission has received periodic updates at their monthly meetings.
