+ = Zoning ordinances =
+ Zoning in Great Falls is assigned by '''ordinance''', one property at a time, under Title 17 of the [[OfficialCode]], the Land Development Code.
+ = The pattern =
+ Nearly every zoning ordinance in the record follows the same shape. The property is identified by legal description — lot, block, addition or certificate of survey, section, township, range, in Cascade County, Montana — the ordinance assigns a classification, and it is accepted on first reading, heard at a public hearing at a later meeting, and adopted, taking effect thirty days later.
+ = Classifications you will see =
+ * '''R-2''' single-family medium density, '''R-3''' single-family high density, '''R-10''' mobile home park
+ * '''C-2''' general commercial, '''M-2''' mixed-use transitional, '''I-1''' light industrial
+ * '''PUD''' — planned unit development, a negotiated classification with its own conditions, used for larger or unusual projects
+ = Recent zoning ordinances =
