Planning - Comprehensive Rezoning

St. Tammany Parish Government is reviewing the zoning classification of every property in unincorporated St. Tammany Parish. This two year effort is the implementation of the recently adopted St. Tammany Parish Unified Development Code - Volume 1 (Zoning Ordinance). This Code replaces the present Zoning Ordinance originally drafted and adopted over 20 years ago.

St. Tammany Parish has been divided into 5 Study Areas. These areas will be undergoing a comprehensive review and recommendation for adoption by the Parish Council with a target date for completion of all Areas by the end of 2009.
