Overview

Code type
euclidean
Naming convention
Residential: RR-1 (rural), R1-20/R1-12/R1-10/R1-8 (SF by lot size), RM-8/RM-16 (multi-family, du/ac-encoded). Commercial: CD (central dev), CG (general), CH (highway), CN (neighborhood). Industrial: MD (manufacturing/distribution), MD-B (business park), MG (general industrial). Project-specific overlays named after subdivisions (Spring Hollow Legends, Tremont Center, Aspen Grove, Edgewood, Aspen Ridges, Rivers Edge).

Standard Euclidean small-city Utah code; chapters are 1.07 (residential), 1.08 (commercial/industrial), 1.09 (mixed use), 1.16 (overlay zones). All Chapter 1.16 overlays are project/subdivision-specific (no traditional hazard overlays like floodplain codified as overlay districts — FEMA NFIP compliance handled via separate flood-damage-prevention ordinance). 1000 North Corridor Preservation is the closest to a traditional corridor overlay.
