In this episode you will learn:
• Zoning is an exercise of police power used at the local level to regulate land use for public welfare.
• Common classifications include R for Residential, C for Commercial, and M for Manufacturing, with numbers indicating intensity.
• Setbacks represent the distance from property lines to the structure, while buffer zones separate incompatible land uses.
• Building codes focus on structural safety while zoning focuses on land use and external dimensions like height and density.
• In conflicts between public zoning and private deed restrictions, the more restrictive regulation always takes precedence.
