Zoning Table

The standards are currently in two titles depending on the zone a property is located within.  To find descriptions of zoning categories and site development standards:

SMC 11.19 - Zoning Code for CBD zones -  Zoning Code link

SMC 17C -  Zoning Code contains the new zoning code requirements for Commercial, Office, and Residential zones.

The Zoning Code contains the descriptions of the City's zoning categories and the uses allowed in them.  The "Zoning Code" also contains the City's requirements for development standards for new construction, such as requirements for setbacks, height limitations, the percentage of a lot that may be occupied by structures, landscaping requirements, and parking requirements.

The Current Planning Section assists applicants in the development process while safeguarding the public's interest in maintaining Spokane's quality of life.  While the Current Planning Section is sometimes referred to as "Zoning," zoning is only one of the section's functions.

The specific work for this Section includes the following areas:

  • Processing of applications for requests such as Rezones, Special Permits, Variances, and Street Name Changes. 

  • Responds to inquiries about how property within the city is zoned, what uses are allowed in those zones, and how property can be developed within the zones.

  • Reviews permits for new fences, garages, and adjustments to property lines.

  •  Processing of applications for specific uses such as Day Care Facilities, Home Occupations, and Drive-Through Espresso Stands.

  • Reviews all new commercial development within the city.

  • Subdivisions, including Short and Long Plats (both Preliminary and Final), Binding Site Plans, and Planned Unit Developments (PUDs).

  • Review of Building Permits for compliance with the City’s zoning standards.  This includes review of permit applications for commercial and office development, garages and other accessory buildings, fences, other new construction activity.

  • Review of Sign Permit applications.

  • The section also supports the Hearing Examiner, Plan Commission, and City Council in the public hearing process through the provisions of the Spokane Municipal Code related to subjects such as the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning, Subdivisions, Shorelines, and Skywalks.
