Zoning Procedures Zoning is the legal and administrative process that establishes land use in a community. Your first step, before committing yourself to any property, should be to check the zoning. Zoning information on all property in the City may be obtained from the Development Services Department. Each piece of property is assigned a specific zoning classification and only certain types of land use are allowed in each classification. Business uses are usually not allowed in residential classifications. Some business uses are not allowed in commercial or industrial classifications. You must satisfy the zoning requirement before your business will be permitted to operate. If the property site you have selected is not zoned for your type of business, you may want to attempt a zoning change. Development Services Office City of Brownwood 501 Center A venue P. 0.
