Manassas Park, Virginia
District mix
Every district in the ordinance, by the category it was classified into.
What housing the districts allow
For each housing type, how many of this jurisdiction's zoning districts permit it outright, permit it only after a public hearing, forbid it, or say nothing about it.
Thin coverage: the ordinance states a housing treatment for only 13% of the district-by-housing-type combinations here, so most of each bar is “not stated”. Read the shares as a floor, not a measurement.
| Housing type | Allowed by right | Public hearing | Prohibited | Not stated |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-family | 0 | 0 | 1 | 7 |
| 2-family | 0 | 0 | 1 | 7 |
| 3-family | 0 | 0 | 1 | 7 |
| 4+ family | 0 | 0 | 1 | 7 |
Minimum lot size where a house is allowed
Across only the districts that permit a single-family house, the smallest lot the ordinance will allow one to sit on.
No district in this ordinance records both a single-family permission and a minimum lot size, so there is nothing to band yet.
Accessory dwelling units
A second, smaller home on the same lot.
0 of 8 districts allow one.
Parking minimums
Districts where the ordinance sets a minimum number of off-street spaces.
Most codes set parking in a citywide chapter rather than per district — those land in standards, not here.
How to read this overview
Districts, not acres. Every share here is a share of this jurisdiction’s 8 zoning districts. The National Zoning Atlas measures land area instead, because it maps district boundaries; zoneoptics reads ordinance text. One downtown district may cover far less ground than one rural district, so “half the districts allow apartments” is not “half the land allows apartments.”
“Not stated” is not “prohibited.” Where an ordinance never addresses a housing type for a district, it is counted as not stated and hatched. Folding those into either column would invent a rule the code does not contain.
