(a) This Zoning Code is generally intended to provide for long-term land use and site planning in Oxford. However, there are times that the public necessity, convenience, general welfare, or good zoning practice require amendments to this Code. This section provides the procedures and standards by which this Code will be amended.
(b) There are two types of possible amendments to this Code. A text amendment changes the written text of the Code, which equally affects all land and improvements that are subject to such regulation. A map amendment (also called rezoning) changes the boundaries between zoning districts on the Zoning Map, which equally affects all of the land that is so rezoned.
