Rutland, Vermont 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. Rutland'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 |
|---|---|---|---|
SFR Single Family Residential | - | 2,214.3 ac | Standards & uses → |
P Park | - | 711.7 ac | Standards & uses → |
MR-1 Mixed Residential 1 | - | 552 ac | Standards & uses → |
I Industrial | - | 510.2 ac | Standards & uses → |

Rutland regulates land through 19 zoning districts, and seven of them are Gateway Business districts named for specific streets and locations.
They cover Woodstock Avenue at roughly 89 acres, North Main Street at about 85, South Main Street at roughly 84, State and West Streets at about 79, Routes 4 and 7 at roughly 16, Gouger Hill at about nine, and two numbered versions.
Seven gateway business districts in a nineteen-district roster is the highest proportion of place-named commercial districts in this dataset. It means the city regulates each approach road individually rather than applying one commercial designation along all of them.
A Main Street Park district at roughly 37 acres and a Courthouse district at about 26 name two further specific places.
A Campus Development District covers roughly 118 acres and a Planned Office Park about 242.
The residential districts are compact: Single Family Residential at roughly 2,214 acres and Mixed Residential at 1 and 2 covering about 574.
Park is the second largest classification at roughly 712 acres and Industrial covers about 510.
The practical reading is that a Rutland district code usually names a place, so the first question on a commercial site is which street it fronts. This is pre-development intelligence, not legal advice - verify with the local planning department before acquisition.
