Norcross officials are seeking consulting firms to prepare an update to the city’s Comprehensive Plan as well as an update/rewrite of the city’s zoning ordinance to include the possible adoption of a Unified Development Ordinance.

According to city documents, “the city is insistent that these documents be user friendly with adequate visual aids and written in a language that is easily understood.”

The approved Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance will contain practical polices to help guide the physical development of the community to create a more walk-able and bike-able environment.

The city will be accepting proposals until 11 a.m. April 13. Information: www.norcrossga.net/Bids.aspx?bidID=82.
