The zoning says one thing. But could the property become something more? 🏗️
Rezoning is the process of seeking changes to the zoning rules that apply to a property.
Depending on the planning framework, that could involve changes to:
• Permitted uses
• Density
• Building height
• Setbacks
• Other development standards
But rezoning is not guaranteed. Municipal planning policies, infrastructure, surrounding uses, technical studies and the approval process can all affect what is achievable.
For investors, developers and landowners, the better question isn’t simply:
“What is the zoning today?”
It’s:
“What could potentially be permitted — and what would it take to get there?”
Understanding that gap can be an important part of identifying development potential.
