The University of New England (UNE) is pursuing an Institutional Overlay Zone (IOZ) for their Portland Campus. An IOZ “provides a regulatory mechanism available to the city’s five major medical and higher education campuses where an improved regulatory structure is needed to facilitate a consistent, predictable, and clear growth management process." To achieve an IOZ, UNE must submit plans and their request to the City of Portland and go through the city’s review and planning process. For example ,the Roux Institute in East Deering went through this process and received the IOZ change in 2023.
