Zoning laws, what fun! Most cities have areas zoned for specific uses, i.e. Industrial, Commercial, Single or Multi Family etc. Unfortunately most cities are different when it comes to zoning policies. For this reason I would start your information search beginning with your city website(hopefully they have one). The internet is great as you should be able to find a good amount of information quickly as to your cities zoning laws and zoning maps. I would suggest visiting your local City Hall/Planning department to get more information. I have seen bars, taverns or restaurants zoned under industrial or commercial and sometimes in both, so it is helpful to check directly with the planning department. Some cities will have zoned maps available online which is very helpful when you are narrowing down your targeted location. There are "dry" zones in many cities which do not allow an establishment that serves alcohol to be within a certain distance of a school, church, community center etc. so double check on these restrictions as well.
