Our built Environment

Zoning

Zoning regulates physical development within the City. Zoning meetings take place the first Wednesday of every month (currently via ZOOM) and are open to anyone.

Historic Preservation Initiative

The WMAN Historic Preservation Initiative champions the economic, environmental, and community benefits of preserving our historic places.

Zoning REmapping taskforce

Our Zoning Taskforce was created in January 2025 to review the zoning classifications of properties in three neighborhood commercial areas to determine if revisions are appropriate to protect existing adjacent residential uses and community values and goals, while also encouraging future development.

  1. Carpenter Lane around the intersection with Greene Street
  2. W Mt Pleasant between Cresheim and Emlen
  3. At the intersection of Greene and Hortter Streets

Traffic calming committee

The goal of WMAN Traffic Calming Committee is to identify and implement actions that prioritize the movement and safety of pedestrians and bicyclists in Mt Airy. We envision our neighborhood where every resident from the elderly to young families, abled and disabled can enjoy seamless connectivity and a high quality of life through integrated transportation systems, pedestrian-friendly streets, accessible infrastructure, and public plazas.
