Zoning Map

A zoning map is a visual tool used by local governments to designate how different areas of land can be used. It divides a city or town into zones, each with specific rules about what can be built and how it can be used, such as residential, commercial, industrial, or agricultural purposes. The map helps guide development, ensures organized growth, and protects the character of neighborhoods. By following the zoning map, developers and property owners can know what types of buildings and activities are allowed in different areas, promoting compatible land use and community planning.
