Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is B because 'enable' should be 'enables'. The subject is 'The Zoning Improvement Plan' (singular), so it requires a singular verb. The phrase 'better known as zip codes' is an interrupter and doesn't change the subject.
