The Beaufort Code

This code provides a high-quality model for a small, historic, design-driven city. It demonstrates an exemplary bifurcation between form-based districts and conventional zones and is well organized and user friendly. City staff took the lead on completing the code to ensure that the final calibration was carefully tailored to context, incorporating the community’s vision through transparent community engagement. The streamlined review process -allows for a significant amount of administrative review.

The full code is available on the City of Beaufort’s website.
