spot zoning Changing the zoning for a particular parcel of property in order to allow uses not ordinarily permitted under the regular zoning for that area.This is a very unusual step; the more common method of reaching the same goal would be to grant a variance for a particular owner for a specific use.In an area zoned for residential use,local government might grant a variance so that a parcel can be used for a doctor's office. With spot zoning, that parcel's zoning would be changed to General Business or something similar,and any business permitted under such zoning could operate on the parcel.How to thank TFD for its existence?
