This is the online version of the Zoning Code of Escalante, UT. The Escalante Zoning Code is codified as Title 10 of the Escalante Municipal Code, and has been placed into its own online book for organizational purposes and ease of use for citizens, developers, city staff and others. The Escalante Zoning Code may be referred to herein as "EZC" or "Title 10" of the Escalante Municipal Code. The Escalante City Code may be referred to herein as "ECC".

This Zoning Code maintains a structure by subject matter using a decimal numbering system identifying the title, chapter, and section (for example: 1.01.010).

• The first number in the sequence (1.01.010) designates the title level
• The second series of numbers (1.01.010) designates the chapter level
• The last series (1.01.010) designates the section level
• If a fourth series exists comprising letters or numbers beyond the section level, it designates a subsection level.

The legislation herein may be arranged as an alphanumeric ordered list A, 1, a, (1), (A), (a) to show hierarchal relationships. The legislation may also be arranged as an unordered list (using bullets, discs, squares, etc.) to show items without hierarchal relationships. These list structures assist in subsequent codification as new legislation is added. To forego the naming of each list item and to more granularly reference legislation that employs alphanumeric characters, use “paragraph” followed by the desired alphanumeric reference(s), comma separated. For example, “paragraph B,7,d”, specifically references item “d”, of item “7”, of item “B”—whereas “paragraph B” refers more generally to any or all of list item B’s descendants. References herein revealing “Utah Code” implies a reference to the "Utah State Legislature".
Vacant titles, chapters, or sections may be designed for future use and may be marked “Reserved” to ease internal expansion. The legislative history identifies the specific legal sources of a section as may be provided in footnotes.

The Zoning Code is supplemented from time­ to ­time with amendments and additions made by the Escalante, Utah. The specific legal sources that comprise this Zoning Code have been adapted during the codification process from the original formatting of the official hard copy. In the event of discrepancies between the online Zoning Code and the official hard copy, the official hard copy governs. Municipal Code Corporation, provides a searchable database of the Zoning Code for easy reference and convenience.
