It summarizes the rules set by the legislature and courts for the process that local governments must follow and reports the results of a survey of how this process is applied by the state¿s cities and counties.

For landowners, neighbors, and entire communities, zoning ordinances play a critical regulatory role in shaping the character of a community¿s development.
