Form Based Codes
Do They Work? How Do We Adopt Them?

Form based codes embody an expressive power. Exceeding the influence of traditional zoning, this artful place-making tool applies principles and regulations to shape a place’s character, whether neighborhood or city. The resulting high quality urban fabric is achieved by a public process that articulates a community’s unique vision by identifying regulations representing the building blocks of community: form, scale and massing, streets, and public space.
Planners, architects, urbanists and all those who value well-designed places should attend this event. The presentation and discussion, led by one of the nation’s leading practitioners of form based codes, will focus on the following topics:
- Where have form based codes helped shape city place-making?
- Where do form based codes provide benefits beyond zoning and specific plans?
- What are the key steps for successful adoption and implementation?
