Proposed Norway Area Zoning Ordinance with

The City of Norway and Norway Township are currently working on a zoning ordinance. Please read and download the pdf for all the information that is currently available.
A public hearing will be held on this plan in the future.
The City of Norway and Norway Township have entered into an agreement to form a joint Planning Commission to investigate and develop joint intergovernmental opportunities.
