Pratt-Ensley Framework Plan community-wide rezoning
Birmingham
Description
A citywide rezone of every property in the Pratt and Ensley communities to align zoning with the city's comprehensive plan, downzone vacant heavy industrial land, and introduce mixed-use and urban neighborhood districts. Approved on second reading after a public hearing.
Impact summary
Residents get zoning that matches neighborhood plans, no new Q conditions, and special-exception neighborhood review before any new landfill or mining in I-4 areas. The Ensley Works site moves from mixed-use to light manufacturing to encourage advanced manufacturing and green energy redevelopment.
