Zone Decoder
Found a zone code on a city map or a listing, like C-2 or R-1-8? Type it in and we'll tell you what it usually means, in plain English.
Every Utah city and county writes its own zone names and rules, so the same code can mean different things in different places. Only the city or county planning department can confirm.
