Zoning Tutorial
A place for everything, and everything in it’s place - Trey
TLDR: In every place, there are rules regulating what you can put there, how big it can be, and what you can do with it
- Districts
- Zoning Map (https://www.honolulugis.org/)
- Land Use Ordinance (https://www.honolulu.gov/ocs/roh/193-site-ocs-cat/975-roh-chapter-21.html)
- What are these? Laws typically regulating density (Population) or bulk (Size & Shape of buildings)
- How often are these updated?
- Last time updated in full - 1986
- Revision is in progress, started in 2017
