    Greater Mattapan Neighborhood District

    Said map amendment establishes new Squares + Streets zoning districts that are regulated by the new Article 26 and associated “Base Code” articles within Mattapan. Said text amendment will clarify the applicability of Article 80 Small and Large Project Review in Squares + Streets Districts; remove the Community Commercial Subdistricts, Gateway Development Area Overlay Districts, and Residential Development Incentives to reflect where Squares + Streets zoning will replace existing Article 60 subdistricts.

                            Open Space-Stadium Zoning

     

                            Said text amendment would add one (1) new Open Space subdistrict to Article 33. The Stadium Open Space (OS-S) subdistrict would create a new stadium and public amphitheater zoning district, in order to enable greater investment and enable more amenities in appropriate areas of the city’s current and future open spaces.  It would also make minor changes that add reference to the Stadium Open Space subdistrict in Article 3, Establishment of Zoning Districts; Article 33-1: Preamble; Article 33-2, Statement of Purpose; Article 33-5, Establishment of Open Space Subdistrict Categories; Article 33-6 Land Eligible for Open Space Designation. Out-of-date language referring to organizations that have reformed or been renamed, such as the Boston Natural Area Fund and Metropolitan District Commission, has also been updated.  Said map amendment would amend Map 8A, Greater Mattapan Neighborhood District by mapping the newly created OS-S subdistrict at White Stadium and also amend Map 3A/3B, East Boston Neighborhood District by mapping the newly created OS-S subdistrict at East Boston Stadium.
