PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The city's Department of Community Development, in partnership with Habitat for Humanity, has been working with an urban planning and design consulting team to discuss zoning in the West Side. 
 
The next step in this work is to hold a series of community input sessions. The first session will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 28, at 6 p.m. at Conte Community School.
 
This session will provide an overview of what zoning is, what zoning can and can't do, how zoning can improve the community and the impact to residents. Attendees will be able to share ideas about what they want their community to look like while also having the opportunity to ask questions.
