How this page fits into land search decisions

This page documents official permitting, zoning, and map resources for a single county. It is most useful after you already know that San Juan County is a viable place for your goals.

If you are still deciding where to look — rather than researching a specific county — a land locator can help narrow regions first, before you spend time on county level details.

If your browser shows a security warning on that map, use the Utah Parcel Map link above for parcel lookup and then confirm zoning and permitted uses directly with the Planning and Zoning office.
