Zoning Ordinance & Zoning Maps
The City of Ypsilanti zoning map and zoning ordinance reflect the goals of the most recently adopted City Master Plan. Following are links to the zoning map for the city and the most recently updated ordinance. Note that these are large PDFs.
View the Zoning Map (PDF). Each parcel or property in the City is in a specific zoning district, and may have additional restrictions or permissions on individual properties, due to Limited Building Types, Special Use Permits, or Variances. The map notes the corresponding district for each parcel and permitted Limited Building Types in the City; it does not make note of special use permits or variances. Most properties within the City do not have these modifiers. Here is a list of recent map amendments that have not yet been published into the full Zoning Map PDF document:
Ordinance No. 1388 - 845-945 Clark Rd PUD
Ordinance No. 1394 - 220 N Park St PUD
If you are having trouble locating your property on these maps, Washtenaw County's GIS mapping system may help you.
View the Zoning Ordinance Text effective on March, 31 2022. The zoning ordinance may be modified throughout the year. Here are a list of recent ordinance amendments that have not yet been published into the full PDF document:
Ordinance No. 1392 - Research & Development in Center
Ordinance No. 1393 - Child Care Centers in Core Neighborhoods
For the full Code of Ordinances, please visit the City Clerk.
Please see the tree list (PDF) for suggested street trees. Visit the Department of Public Services webpage for the tree permit and guidance on how and where to plant a tree.
