It is the objective of the City to encourage and provide for proper transitions and compatibility between zones and intensity of uses, which should be regulated by the City Land Use Code, the General Plan, Future Land Use Map, and the Kanab City Annexation Policy Plan. The City also seeks to maintain a healthy balance and mix of land uses within the community, representing the atmosphere of existing development. Areas for growth have been planned with a balance for all uses, including agriculture, residential, commercial, and industrial uses, and lot size averaging as demonstrated in the Kanab City
Chapter 15 – Establishment of Zoning Districts
General Plan and Future Land Use Map. Future decisions regarding land use and zoning in Kanab should be guided by this map.
The City promotes orderly growth, with an emphasis on new developments to occur in the core community areas first. Rezoning of adjacent undeveloped property should be compatible with developed property. Lot size averaging standards and requirements outlined in the Kanab City Subdivision Ordinance allow for a mix of lot sizes within a new subdivision in zones: Rural Residential (RR-1) and Single Family Zones (R-1-8, R-1-10, R-1-15, R-1-20).
