Spot Zoning
SPOT ZONING
The granting to a particular parcel of land a classification concerning its use that differs from the classification of other land in the immediate area.
Spot zoning is invalid because it amounts to an arbitrary, capricious, and unreasonable treatment of a limited area within a particular district and is, therefore, a deviation from the comprehensive plan.
