Orem, Utah 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. Orem's ordinance does not state permitted uses as citywide flags, so they are read from each district's own table rather than summarised here.
| Zone Code | Category | Area | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
R8 Residential Zone | - | 4,731.6 ac | Standards & uses → |
PF Public Facilities | - | 1,022.3 ac | Standards & uses → |

Orem regulates land through 65 zoning districts, and the planned development districts are the distinguishing feature because they are named by address.
Districts appear as PD followed by a number and then a street location: University Place at 1300 South State Street, a site at 2000 West Springwater Park Drive, Orem Falls Business Park at 1200 North Geneva Road, a residential estate at 1300 South Carterville Road, and Timpanogos Research And Technology Park.
Naming the address in the district identity is unusually literal and means a code points to a specific site without any lookup. One is simply named Urban Village.
The residential districts state lot size at 6, 6.5, 7.5, 8, 12 and 20, with R8 the largest district in the city at roughly 4,732 acres.
A Controlled Manufacturing Zone covers roughly 241 acres alongside a general Manufacturing Zone at about 770. Naming one controlled rather than light describes the regulatory approach rather than the intensity.
A Highway Services district covers roughly 278 acres and a Business Park Zone about 228.
Public Facilities is the second largest classification at roughly 1,022 acres, and an Open Space Zone covers about 233. This is pre-development intelligence, not legal advice - verify with the local planning department before acquisition.
