Abstract:

Los Angeles’s zoning has important pioneering significance in land use control in the United States. By tracing the origin and historical evolution of zoning and the transformation of the new hybrid zoning for Los Angeles, this paper lays a foundation for a more comprehensive understanding of American zoning to clarify the differences between planning and zoning. The Los Angeles’s zoning shows the development of land use control tools in the United States, which expanded from nuisance ordinances, from incomplete zoning to comprehensive zoning. The zoning for Los Angeles has gradually transformed from the early tools of direct land use control into control tools for implementing planning objectives. Its new comprehensive zoning is a dynamic, web-based hybrid partition system, which is the control carrier to achieve multiple objectives and has high advanced nature. As a technical tool for space control, zoning and its experience in Los Angeles can provide reference for the law-based management of spatial planning in China.
