With the exception of City-owned rights-of-way, all of the land in Virginia Beach has a designated Zoning District.
These districts are defined by the City's Zoning Ordinance, which outlines regulations applicable to each district. Regulations include minimum yard requirements (or building setbacks), landscaping requirements, and allowable land uses.
