What is 'downsizing' in the context of zoning?

  1. Reducing the size of buildings on a property

  2. Taking measures to decrease municipal expenses

  3. Reducing the density or use allowed on a property

  4. Decreasing the number of employees within the zoning board

The correct answer is: Reducing the density or use allowed on a property

Downsizing in the context of zoning is the act of reducing the density or use allowed on a property. This means that there are limitations imposed on the size or type of structures that can be built on a property. Option A is incorrect as it refers to the physical size of buildings, which may not necessarily be related to zoning. Option B is unrelated to zoning and refers to municipal expenses. Option D mentions the zoning board, which is not relevant to the question and may confuse the reader.
