rezones
Changes land designation
Rezones is the third-person singular of rezone, meaning to change the official zoning classification of a property or area.
When a city rezones land, it changes what can legally be built there—converting residential to commercial, agricultural to industrial, and so on: The council rezones the parcel to allow mixed-use development.
Rezoning decisions often spark controversy among property owners and neighbors.
