In-Town residents successfully alter zoning regulations
Residents of In-Town, a part of Champaign that prides itself on its vibrant diversity, rallied together against possible zoning developments last fall. After nearly two years of meetings and advocacy, the residents, specifically the members of both the Old Town and Washington St. Neighborhood Associations, successfully negotiated a set of conditions with the City Council that new developers must abide by when building in the In-Town District of Champaign.
