Amendment types:

• Small Scale Amendments: Small scale amendments are future land use changes that are less than 10 acres and may include changes to a subarea policy boundary.
• Large Scale Amendments (Two cycles per year): Large scale amendments are future land use map amendments greater than 10 acres, city-initiated amendments, amendments to the GMP figures or text, and changes based on the Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR).
• Out-of-cycle amendments: Some GMP amendments may not fall into either of the above categories, like changes associated with a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) or the annual updates to the City’s Capital Improvement Schedule. Additionally, regular large scale amendments can be adopted individually as “out of cycle” amendments, subject to additional advertising fees. Please contact Comprehensive Planning Studio staff for assistance with out-of-cycle amendments.

All amendments go to the Municipal Planning Board for a public hearing. Staff reports are available on the Municipal Planning Board Meetings and Agenda site. Click on the appropriate agenda, then click on the blue box around the case number to view the staff report. Agenda items with the case number prefix 'GMP' are Growth Management Plan amendments.
