Zoning Ordinance

The City of Bessemer revamped our zoning code in 2011. For your assistance the city developed a Guide to Development which walks you through the zoning code. However, feel free to call the City Manager with any questions. She can be reached at (906)663-4311 or at charly.loper@bessemermi.org.
