SPOT-A DEFINITION. Nowhere in planning and zoning legislation is the term spot zone defined or used. Spot zoning is colloquial term developed to describe the application of a specific zoning district classification to a small area which is surrounded by a larger different (usually less intense) zoning district.
Commercial Zoning Local governments use zoning to protect the health and safety of a community and to regulate growth. Zoning laws -- also referred to as zoning ordinances and land use regulations-- control the use of property. Commercial zoning laws control the type of activities a business may conduct in a particular area and the category of business that can occupy the zoned area.
