How to find out Property Zoning in San Antonio

In the previous post, I started to discuss some information on zoning codes for San Antonio. So, how do you find out what a property is zoned?

In San Antonio, start by looking at the San Antonio Mapping website. This has a lot of information, but isn't exactly intuitive to use.

When you go there, click "Accept" to accept the disclaimers and enter the site.

Then, click the little mailbox icon to enter an address, and click locate. If the site is working correctly, it will zoom into a visual map showing your site, and the surrounding parcels. It is color coded for commercial and residential uses, and should show the zoning and any relevant overlay districts.

If zoning is critical to you, I always suggest that you verify with the Development Services office. You lender may require it anyway, if you are buying a new property. Here's a link to get a Zoning Verification Letter.
