Research notes

Statutory enabling authority for non-charter municipalities. Key sections: §713.06 planning commission authority, §713.07 use regulation, §713.08 height regulation, §713.09 bulk/setbacks/lot coverage, §713.10 districting, §713.11 BZA/appeals/variances, §713.12 public hearing requirements (≥30 days notice), §713.15 nonconforming uses. Charter cities may adopt Chapter 713 by election or follow charter-based parallel procedures. This overlay is primarily procedural; it does not preempt substantive zoning fields but governs the enabling process.
