Unified Development Code (UDC) Review

Addison has completed a comprehensive review and update of the Town’s development regulations. Many of the Town’s rules for development were crafted in the 1980s and were not keeping up with current development trends, shifting demographics, and evolving consumer preferences, or future community needs. To accomplish this review, the Town collaborated with consulting firm, Clarion Associates. Clarion has completed a full consolidated draft of the new Unified Development Code (UDC), and City Council adopted the UDC on March 25, 2025. The tentative effective date of the UDC is September 1, 2025.
