In CA Court of Appeals case O'Loane v. O'Rourke a distinction was made between planning and zoning as follows:
"While municipal planning embraces zoning, the converse does not hold true. They are not convertible terms. Zoning is not devoid of planning, but it does not include the whole of planning. Zoning is separation of the municipality into districts, and the regulation of buildings and structures, according to their construction, and the nature and extent of their use, and the nature and extent of uses of land. Planning has a much broader connotation. It has in its view, the physical development of the community and its environs in relation to its social and economic well-being for the fulfillment of the rightful common destiny, according to a 'master plan' based on 'careful and comprehensive surveys and studies of present conditions and the prospects of future growth of the municipality,' and embodying scientific teaching and creative experience. In a word, this is an exercise of the State's inherent authority, antedating the Constitution itself, to have recourse to such measures as may serve the basic common moral and material needs. Planning to this end is as old as government itself - of the very essence of an ordered and civilized society..."

Zoning is the practice of dividing land into different areas for specific types of development, such as residential, commercial, or industrial.
