A quick definition of land-use regulation:

Land-use regulation is a set of rules made by the government that controls how land can be used or developed. These rules can include what type of buildings can be built, how many buildings can be on a piece of land, and how the buildings should look. The government makes these rules to make sure that the land is used in a way that benefits the community and doesn't harm the environment or people's health.

A more thorough explanation:

Land-use regulation refers to laws or rules that control how real estate can be used or developed. These regulations can be in the form of ordinances or other legislative enactments.

There are four main aspects of land use that land-use regulation focuses on:

  1. The type of use, such as whether the land will be used for agricultural, commercial, industrial, or residential purposes.
  2. The density of use, which refers to concerns over the size, height, and environmental impact of buildings on the land.
  3. The aesthetic impact of the use, which includes the design and placement of structures on the land.
  4. The effect of the particular use of the land on the cultural and social values of the community.

For example, a city may have zoning laws that prohibit the construction of industrial buildings in residential areas. This is an example of land-use regulation that controls the type of use of the land.

Another example is a regulation that limits the height of buildings in a certain area to preserve the scenic view. This is an example of land-use regulation that controls the density of use.

Overall, land-use regulation is important for ensuring that real estate is used in a way that benefits the community and protects the environment.
