Zoning
Zoning is local government regulation that controls how land can be used—residential, commercial, industrial, or mixed-use—and what can be built (density, height, setbacks, parking).
Zoning Reform Opportunity
A Zoning Reform Opportunity arises when local or state governments change zoning regulations to allow higher density, additional dwelling units (ADUs), mixed-use development, or conversion of existing structures, creating value for properties that can now be developed or used more intensively than previously allowed.
Zoning Variance
A zoning variance is a formal exception to the local zoning code—allowing a use or dimension that would otherwise be prohibited. You apply to the zoning board; approval isn't guaranteed.
