Zoning

The City of Pasadena is a non-zoned municipality. Therefore, land use regulations within the City of Pasadena corporate limits are accomplished through City ordinances and deed restrictions, if applicable to the property. Industrial districts located in the City of Pasadena’s extra-territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) are not subject to City ordinances and permitting requirements.

The City of Pasadena’s standard no-zoning letter (PDF) is applicable to any property within the City of Pasadena. To obtain a no-zoning letter for a specific property, email your request to the Planning Department or call 713-475-5543.
