Description: This datalayer is an NRPC interpretation of the local ordinance describing zoning district in each of our communities and does not represent official zoning. The town's own official zoning map and current ordinance should be consulted as the authoritative source on permitted uses, zoning boundary questions, or other issues. Overlay districts, which generally add a level of restriction, are not represented in this datalayer. To facilitate regional use of these data and town-by-town comparisons, NRPC created a field called PRIM_USE based on NPRC's interpretations of highest density permitted use, broadly defined, regardless of zoning district nomenclature. When density failed to distinguish between zoning districts in a town, the overall intentions of the zoning district, as stated in the ordinance, were considered. Lot sizes represent the smallest permissible lot.
