Zoning

The goal of the Zoning Program is to examine plans and permit applications for the issuance of permits, and to ensure that projects are carried out in accordance with approved plans.


Enforcement

Zoning Enforcement is the system of controlling the use of the land and the type of structures built in the municipality by dividing the municipality into the districts for which there are regulations that sets standards for:

  • The height and bulk of buildings and other structures

  • The area of a lot which may be occupied and the size of required open space

  • The density of the population

  • The use of buildings for trade, industry, residences, or other purposes

  • The minimum setbacks and yard requirements for structures and uses.
