What is zoning?Updated a year ago

Zoning is defined as “to divide a town or piece of land into areas subject to particular restrictions on development and use.” Many areas in the city you live in have been zoned for specific projects, like housing, commercial use, and more. Depending on the zoning laws where your shop sits, you may not be able to run an automatic screen printing shop. To ensure compliance, contact your city's zoning office or a realtor to confirm if your shop's location allows for operating an automatic screen printing shop. Additionally, consider the electricity requirements of the press and whether your current or prospective space can meet them. Industrial and commercial spaces are more likely to meet these needs, while residential spaces may require modifications or lower-power presses.
