Land Use Planning & Zoning Law
Zoning & Land Use Planning Law
Real estate may be privately owned, but it’s regulated so that it may be taxed appropriately. Call our offices for help with your real estate issues.
Zoning Restrictions
Cities can restrict how real estate is used. This can cause conflict between private citizens and businesses with their desired use of the real estate, and the municipality that has restricted the use of the property.
Types of zoning restrictions often have to do with:
- Height Limits On Buildings,
- Off-Street Parking,
- The Setback From Which A Structure Can Be Built Next To A Property Line
- Signage Restrictions
- Floodplains
- Use Of Buildings & Accessories

Property owners often request relief from their city or county to enable them to construct something outside its zoning restrictions. Here are the common ones our office has experience on handling for you.
