Proposed Zoning data is intended to better inform residents of current rezoning activities in their community. Rezoning cases are typically requested from property owners to allow for a new use or to apply a different set of development standards (i.e. setbacks, building heights, and densities) that are not already permitted in the existing zoning district designated for their property.

Zoning regulations are intended to protect existing land uses and assure that uses are compatible with each other and with available public facilities and services. Through the rezoning process, land use and other factors are evaluated to determine the appropriateness of a specific rezoning proposal. Final approval of a rezoning request is granted by the Phoenix City Council at a public hearing.

Digitized zoning maps for three time points during Phoenix’s 20th Century development: 1930-1941 (Phoenix’s original adoption of zoning), 1955 (onset of postwar expansion), and 1970 (major annexation and planning for growth, including the city’s incorporation of large agricultural areas for urban expansion).

The City of Phoenix (COP) zoning boundaries were digitized from a hard copy data set, by contract, in 1991. Since that time, updates to the data have been made on an ongoing basis as land is rezoned. The layer is digitized at a relatively small scale, from approximately 1:10 to 1:10,000. Changes are made when inconsistencies are found.Contact Information: zoning@phoenix.gov

A General Plan provides the vision and policies that determine how a city will grow and develop. The General Plan was reviewed by the public and village planning committees in the fall of 2014. The Planning and Development Department has developed an updated draft based on the community's feedback. The General Plan Update was unanimously approved by the Planng Commision on January 13, 2015. The Phoenix City Council is scheduled to review and possibly take action on the General Plan at the February 17, Neighborhoods Housing and Development Subcommittee and the City Council Formal meeting on March 4, 2015.
