Community planning and zoning help decide how land in a neighborhood can be used. Planning ensures that there are enough spaces for homes, schools, parks, and businesses. Zoning is like a map that shows where different activities can happen, which helps keep areas safe and organized. This way, families have a pleasant place to live, and children have safe places to play.
