To determine if your intended use of your property is lawful in Alabama, you need to review the relevant zoning ordinance and land use regulations for your specific location. These regulations outline the permitted uses, development standards, and any special requirements or restrictions that apply to properties within different zoning districts. By examining the zoning map and ordinance provisions, you can identify the zoning classification of your property and whether your intended use is allowed as-of-right, requires a special permit or variance, or is prohibited altogether. Consulting with a land use and zoning attorney can provide further clarification and guidance on interpreting the applicable regulations.
