National Zoning Code

The National Zoning Code refers to a set of regulations that govern land use and development across a country. It defines how land can be used—such as for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes—and establishes guidelines for building heights, densities, and spacing. The code aims to organize urban growth, protect community interests, and ensure safety and environmental sustainability. Local governments typically adapt these national guidelines to fit their specific needs, fostering orderly development and preventing conflicts over land use within communities.
