Planning and zoning are essential for organized urban development, ensuring that land uses are compatible and support community goals. They help manage growth and development, protect Natural Resources, and enhance public safety by minimizing hazards. Additionally, effective planning and zoning promote economic development by creating a predictable environment for investment and infrastructure. Lastly, they provide a framework for community engagement, allowing residents to participate in shaping their neighborhoods.

Zoning regulations can control animals by restricting the number and type of animal allowed on a premises. Zoning laws differ from area to area so check the local zoning ordinance if planning on acquiring any animals especially if the animal in question is an exotic breed.
In most areas of the US zoning is managed by the local jurisdictional authority...typically the County planning department. Sometimes it will fall under town or city jurisdiction. To identify the zoning of a specific tract of land I would contact your local planning department as they should be able to tell you the zoning, and provide you with the zoning guidelines in that area. Zoning may also be found via county records and your local title company can pull the records (as they do during real estate sales process) and these records will usually provide the zoning designation (residential, hillside, rural, williamson act, PUD, etc.)
