What is Zoning?

Zoning is the tool that the City
uses to ensure that the vision of the City’s Comprehensive Master Plan is
consistently met.  Zoning regulates
setbacks, the building footprint, changes to the existing footprint of the
building, types of uses, and open space/lot coverage. Zoning review and
approval are generally the first step of any proposed development or project
process.
