The Unified Development Code is a major outcome of the Tyler 1st planning process and puts into ordinance many of the ideas developed from community feedback and recommended in the Plan.

The UDC provides for zoning classifications that encourage sustainable growth in Tyler. One example is new mixed use development zoning districts that will allow for vertical integration of retail, office and residential. Other changes to the Code include enhanced landscaping requirements for new developments and relaxed parking standards.
