Zoning regulations

     Zoning regulations are the most common regulatory tool used by local governments throughout the country to manage land use and development. Zoning evolved out of urban reform movements of the early twentieth century to address overcrowding and blight and to protect existing residential and commercial neighborhoods from encroaching development.

 Zoning ordinances divide a town, city, village, or county into separate residential, commercial, and industrial districts, thereby preserving the desirable characteristics of each type of setting. These laws generally limit dimensions in each zone. Many regulations require certain building features and limit the number and location of parking and loading areas and the use of signs. Other regulations provide space for schools, parks, or other public facilities.

 Zoning helps city planners bring about orderly growth and change. It controls population density and helps create attractive, healthful residential areas. In addition, zoning helps assure property owners and residents that the characteristics of nearby areas will remain stable.

     Zoning is used to regulate the location, type, and density of development  within  a  community  through  the delineation of one or

more zones or zoning districts, as depicted on a zoning map. There is no “right” way to craft or organize a zoning bylaw; local regulations are as varied as the communities that adopt them. Zoning regulations usually include the following, in some form:

     Statutory Authorizations, including adoption and effective dates, applicability and use for local regulation, and bylaw amendment and

109

“severability” provisions that apply in the event that portions of the regulation are deemed by the courts to be invalid.

     Zoning Districts, including lists of uses allowed within each zoning district (for example, permitted uses requiring only administrative review and conditional uses requiring additional board approval), related dimensional and density standards (for example, minimum lot size, frontage, setback, and coverage requirements), and any other standards that are specific to each district.

    General or Supplemental Regulations that apply to all uses, as applicable. These often include standards for nonconformities, access and parking, performance, lighting, signs, and so on.

    Use Standards that apply only to specified uses as allowed within one or more zoning districts to include, for example, standards for homebased businesses, telecommunications facilities, extraction operations, and industrial and mobile home parks.

    Development Review Procedures, including the types of review procedures adopted for local use and related standards and application requirements. Regulations must specify the types and sequence of review to coordinate permitting activities and also the appropriate municipal panel (the planning commission, board of adjustment, or development review board) who is authorized to conduct each type of review.

    Administrative Requirements, including municipal appointments, powers, and duties; the issuance of permits and approvals; appeals and

variances; variance requirements; hearing and notice requirements; recording requirements; and violation and enforcement provisions.

    Definitions, which should include definitions for all listed uses and for technical and legal terms. Statutory definitions, where applicable, must be used.

    Zoning Map – typically a copy of the official zoning map(s), located in    the  municipal   clerk’s   office,   that    is  adopted  and

incorporated by reference in the regulations. Boundary descriptions also may be included in the regulations or noted on or appended to the zoning map. Information should be presented so that it’s easy to find and use. A table of contents or index is helpful.  Tables – for example, zoning district or use tables – are a useful way to highlight and summarize  information.   Graphics  can  and  should  be  used  to help

110

illustrate terms and definitions. Often statutory requirements are incorporated by reference. This may shorten the length of the document, but it may also leave out information that’s important for local officials, applicants, and neighbors who don’t have ready access to state statutes.
