Transportation & Site Compliance Team

This team reviews development proposals to ensure that they comply with the Boston Zoning Code, support neighborhood mobility needs, and champion policy recommendations from plans. This team collaborates with other Planning Department teams and City of Boston departments to support the design, preservation, enhancement, and growth of neighborhoods through the application of the zoning regulations, implementation of Boston’s Complete Street Guidelines and incorporation of sustainable infrastructure recommendations.

Transportation & Site Compliance is a core component of short-term planning, otherwise known as Development Review. The team’s work includes reviewing development proposals, including Article 80 projects, to ensure they support planning policies and zoning code provisions. Recognizing the character and quality of Boston's built environment influences how its residents and visitors move throughout the city, the Compliance Team seeks to enhance mobility and help neighborhoods maintain their unique characteristics and high quality of life in the face of new development.
