About ZoneCo
Founded in 2020 by city planner, lawyer, and former Chief Counsel of Land Use and Planning for the City of Cincinnati, Sean S. Suder, ZoneCo has become a preeminent zoning code writing firm in America.
ZoneCo was founded on the following zoning principles:
Zoning should regulate only what needs to be regulated to advance the vision and promote public health, safety, and welfare.
Zoning should respect both existing and desired development patterns.
Zoning should be the implementation of a plan, not a barrier to achieving desired outcomes.
