Upon visiting to section 20.10.060, note that the city of San Jose has established certain districts and the zoning laws are a function of these districts. Some district classifications such as open Space, Agriculture, Residential, etc., have very restrictive zoning laws and others have light restrictions (Industrial Districts).
