Zoning Ordinance
The City of Bessemer revamped our zoning code in 2021. 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@cityofbessemer.org.
