Summit County's Zoning Regulations divide the unincorporated area of the County into a series of zoning districts and specify land uses which are permitted, conditional, temporary, accessory or not allowed in each zoning district. Additionally, the regulations include standards for non-conforming lots, uses and structures, and home occupations. They also regulate such items as the location, height, bulk and size of buildings, signs, lot sizes, setbacks, amount of area allowed to be developed, open space, parking and landscaping. The purpose and intent of these regulations is to insure compatibility of land uses, efficient and economical use of land and adequate light and air in development projects. They are also intended to prevent development in areas subject to environmental hazards and encourage development projects that are functional, exhibit good design and aesthetics and protect the County's natural resources and scenic beauty.
