Question

What does M-2 zoning mean?

Answer 1

Depends on where you live. There is no standardized coding system when it comes to zoning, what city or county is the property located in?

M might stand for Manufacturing but might also stand for Mixed-Use or Multiple Residential or something else altogether. You can usually find zoning definitions at the planning department's website of the jurisdiction the property is located in.

Answer 2
