The Emporia-Lyon County Metropolitan Area Planning Commission continued work to “fine-tune” the city of Emporia’s new zoning regulations during its monthly meeting Tuesday night. According to Chairman Kenton Thomas, the board spent much of the meeting reviewing and refining questions related to terminology and wording. The board has been refining the regulations for the past several years ever since the creation of the City and County joint comprehensive plan. Last fall the Emporia City Commission put a halt to the process to allow time for an outside attorney to conduct a secondary review of the plans to ensure they were in good legal standing. The review process recommenced in October of last year.
