Zoning Ordinance & Map

The City of Northfield's Zoning Ordinance establishes land use and building regulations for private property within the city limits to meet the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The ordinance encourages well-planned, efficient and attractive developments through adequate, impartial design and construction standards. If interested in development, construction or use of a property within Northfield, contact the city's Planning and Zoning division.

Any plans for subdivided property must be approved by the Northfield City Council, which also entails a public hearing before the Planning Commission.
