Lafayette Parish uses specific zoning codes to regulate land use, including CH (Commercial Heavy) for intense retail and light industrial, CM (Commercial Medical) near major healthcare hubs, and MN (Mixed-Use Neighborhood) for low-intensity commercial integrated with residential areas. Understanding these codes is critical before purchasing or leasing.
