Zoning is the legal and administrative process whereby the city protects itself against indiscriminate land uses.

The commission has the power to makes rules, regulations, and bylaws for its own government, which shall conform as nearly as possible to those governing the city council (board of commissioners) and same shall be subject to approval by such commission.
