  1. Field Groups

Zone Use Type

Zone Use Type (ZO_USETY)

This field describes what uses – (1) Residential, (2) Non-residential, (3) Residential and Non-residential, or (4) Open Space – are allowed in the zone by-right, regardless of the zone name or zone description.

Example: An industrial zone where industrial uses and housing are allowed by-right would be classified as (3) Residential and Non-residential, because residential uses are permitted.

Our interpretation also privileges residential and non-residential uses over open space, so the only zones classified as (4) Open Space on the map allow neither (1) Residential nor (2) Non-residential uses by right. Our interpretation does not account for institutional uses in the non-residential class, as these uses are most often allowed in all zones.

Zone Use Type is populated for all zones in the Atlas.
