Zoning Ordinances and Regulations
Zoning ordinances and regulations are laws that define and restrict how you can use your property. Cities, counties, townships, and other local governments adopt zoning plans in order to set development standards to assure that land is used for the common good.
Zoning laws come into play on every single real estate transaction, regardless of how big or small, so if you are thinking about buying property or making improvements to property you already own, you’d better be sure you understand the zoning restrictions before you commit to anything.
Use requirements refer to how property can be used. Typical zonings categories include:
- Residential
- Commercial
- Industrial
- Agricultural
- Recreational
These categories usually break down into further subcategories. For example, there are subcategories for single-family (i.e., residences) and multiple-family (e.g., apartments or condominiums) residential use.
Zoning laws will set forth many use restrictions, such as:
- The height and overall size of buildings
- Their proximity to one another
- What percentage of the area of a building lot may contain structures
- What particular kinds of facilities must be included with certain kinds of uses
For example, zoning ordinances will typically limit the number of stories and total height of a building, require a certain number of parking spaces for a commercial building, and require a driveway and garage on a suburban residential property.
Before getting too involved in a zoning issue, it would no doubt be in your best interests to hire a real estate attorney to help you through the process.
