Basic Zoning & Subdivision Regulations

Your zoning ordinance is arguably the most important device you have to implement your comprehensive plan. It provides you with the means to define the type and intensity of uses permitted on any piece of property. Your city’s subdivision regulations govern the manner in which vacant land is platted into streets, blocks, and lots in preparation for development. They are, therefore, very important in that they establish the street pattern and the type of improvements that must be made as land is brought into urban use.

In this work shop you’ll learn the legal basis in Alabama law for regulating the use of land and its subdivision. This workshop also brings you up-to-date on how Alabama courts have been viewing land use issues.
