This ordinance proposes amendments to Fort Worth's zoning code to revise the Low Intensity Mixed-Use (MU-1) and High Intensity Mixed-Use (MU-2) districts. The changes address office and hotel height regulations in MU-2, clarify standards for screening, landscaping, building types, parking, and signage, and add microbrewery, microdistillery, and brewpub as allowed uses in the MU-2 district. The amendments were developed through a 2018 reconvening of the Mixed-Use Zoning Advisory Group (MUZAG) to address issues identified by staff, developers, and neighborhood groups, and have been recommended for approval by both the Zoning Commission and Urban Design Commission.
