Garland, Texas Zoning Districts: What Do They Mean?
Zoning districts are areas regulated by specific laws that determine land use, building types, and development rules. Each district below shows its zone type. Garland's ordinance does not state permitted uses as citywide flags, so they are read from each district's own table rather than summarised here.

|---|---|---|---|
SF-7 Single Family 7 | - | 12,390.3 ac | Standards & uses → |
AG Agricultural | - | 4,548.8 ac | Standards & uses → |

Run it →How is Garland zoned?
Garland regulates land through 39 zoning districts, and the planned development prefix is applied as a combined code rather than as a standalone district.
Districts appear as PD followed by the base category: planned development with single family at 7, 10 and 5, with community retail, with multifamily, with industrial, with single family attached, with urban business, with agricultural and with community office. Together those combined districts cover roughly 7,175 acres.
That notation names both the framework and the underlying category, so a code tells you a plan applies and what it applies to.
In several cases the planned version covers a substantial share of its base category. Planned development with single family at 7 covers roughly 2,933 acres against about 12,390 for the plain district, and planned development with community retail covers roughly 1,066 acres against about 1,276 plain.
The conventional single family districts state lot size at 5, 7 and 10, with SF-7 the largest in the city at roughly 12,390 acres.
An Urban Business district covers roughly 309 acres and a Community Office district about 197, both with planned variants.
Agricultural covers roughly 4,549 acres and Industrial about 3,305, with a Downtown district at roughly 417. This is pre-development intelligence, not legal advice - verify with the local planning department before acquisition.
