Zoning 101: Learning the Basics about the Zoning Process and Players will be the topic for the next Preservation Café, sponsored by the Capitol Hill Restoration Society. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, April 18, from 6:30-7:15 p.m. at Ebenezer’s Coffee House, 201 F Street, N.E. The featured speakers are Richard Nero, deputy director of the District’s Office of Zoning, and Sara Bardin, special assistant to the zoning office director. Their PowerPoint presentation will explain how zoning decisions are made, who makes them, and what role citizens can play in the process. Their remarks also will highlight the differences between the Zoning Administrator (in the Building and Land Regulatory Administration of the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs) and the Office of Zoning, and explain the different responsibilities of the Zoning Commission and the Board of Zoning Adjustment. Using specific case examples, CHRS plans to offer a second seminar this fall on the more technical aspects of zoning (overlays, setbacks, rear and side yard requirements, density, variances, special exceptions, uses, parking, lot coverage and related topics.) The April 18 Preservation Café is free and open to the public, no reservations required. For more information, contact Nancy Metzger at 546-1034.
