Vision Plan / form-based Zoning
This vision plan is the most recent in a series of plans
prepared for Broad Ripple Village, all with similar themes,
goals, and objectives. What sets this plan apart from the
previous plans is the introduction of form-based zoning. It
was clear from the beginning that the Broad Ripple Village
community, along with confrmation of past efforts, wanted
to establish guidelines as future changes were made.
White River winds around and forms a natural boundary
to the north and west of the village. Consequently, a
large portion of the village falls within the 100-year food
plain. As planned food control projects remove land
