GIS and Analytics:  A collection of maps and apps our organization makes available to the general public, including the Interactive Town Map.  Use the Interactive Town Map to determine your property's zoning district or if it's within a Special Protection Area.

Dimensional Standards and Matrix: The standards and table determine the setback and dimensional requirements for your zoning district; they are part of section 3.8 of the Land Use Management Ordinance (LUMO).
