The zoning code provides information on land use regulations, dimensional standards, and certain other development standards that apply to property within the city (i.e., landscaping standards, parking standards, sign standards, etc.). The information in the zoning code is presented by zone and land use type, so it is important to consult the city’s official zoning map to determine what zone applies to a given property.

The zoning code constitutes Title 18 of the Auburn City Code (ACC), and is organized as a series of chapters. General zoning code provisions are presented in Chapter 18.02 ACC. This chapter contains the basic rules of interpretation for the zoning code, and includes a complete list of the city’s zones. This chapter is a resource for users who may be unfamiliar with zoning codes and are unsure of how a particular regulation applies to them. Procedural sections of the code and decision criteria are addressed in Chapters 18.60 through 18.72 ACC. (Ord. 6245 § 1, 2009.)
