Overview
The city and some areas of Yellowstone County are divided into zoning districts. Zoning districts are used to control the use, placement, spacing and size of land and buildings. The city and county Zoning Regulations outline the requirements for each zoning district. We oversee the Billings Zoning Regulations and Yellowstone County Zoning Regulations. We also administer Special Zoning Districts in Yellowstone County.
You can view the Municipal Code here.
