If you’re buying land for sale in Columbia County, you need to know about zoning – what it is, how it works and how it’ll affect you.
What is Zoning?
Zoning is a restriction on the way or ways that land can be used. Zoning laws help local governments preserve property values, and they help ensure that communities are functional.
How Zoning Works
The government – usually a municipal, town or township government – sets zoning rules for their own location. In most cases, these agencies divide their jurisdictions into zones that are classified by types of land use that are permitted.
One area could be residential, and another is commercial, and another is agricultural. There can by hybrid zones mixed in – those zones can be used for a mixture of these. Further, some residential areas might allow only single-family homes, but others can include apartments, condos and townhouses.
