For the purpose of these regulations the City of Port Angeles is divided into 22 zoning classifications as follows:

*Sections 17.44 and 17.45 were added pursuant to Ordinance 3293, 8/31/2007

(Ord. 3710 § 1, 3/21/2023; Ord. 3180 § 1 (part), 12/17/2004; Ord. 2948 § 5 (part), 2/14/1997; Ord. 2861 § 1 part, 3/17/1995; Ord. 2798 § 2, 2/25/1994; Ord. 2715 § 2, 10/16/1992; Ord. 2668 § 2 (part), 1/17/1992; Ord. 1709 § 1 (part), 12/22/1970)

A zoning map, showing the location and the boundaries of the various zones in the City, shall be established as the Official Zoning Map and shall be an integral part of these Zoning Regulations. The Zoning Map shall be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, and the land use designations on the Zoning Map shall be at the same or lesser intensity of uses and impacts on surrounding uses as the Comprehensive Plan Map. Where the zoning land use designation is at a lesser intensity than the comprehensive plan designation, a rezone may be granted if circumstances have been shown to be changed and the public use and interest is served. Where the zoning land use designation is at a greater intensity than the comprehensive plan designation, a rezone consistent with the comprehensive plan must be obtained before new development will be permitted.
