Hi, I'm working on setting up a Community Garden with a group that will be purchasing its land upfront in St Petersburg, FL.
At present, the city's zoning does not permit non-profits or any kind of group to operate in areas deemed residential. They are interested in amending their code to add a new category for community gardens in order to let us implement our garden and to allow others to do the same. Staff at the codes department have asked us to submit examples of zoning regulations for community gardens from other cities. They want templates for guidelines on things like standards for hours of operation, lighting, fencing, public access, parking, etc. Does anyone on this list know of a city with good zoning or other municipal regulations for community gardens? Having some suggestions of where to start researching would be extremely helpful.
