Jackson R-1 residential height limit is 35 feet. Commercial and Capitol Complex District allow taller buildings. Downtown Jackson high-rises like the Regions Plaza reflect C-3 zoning standards. Chimneys and antennas exempt.
Jackson zoning code caps R-1 residential structures at 35 feet or 2.5 stories, whichever is less, measured from average finished grade to the highest roof point. R-2 and R-3 multi-family zones allow 40 to 45 feet. Downtown C-3 and the Capitol Complex District allow significantly greater heights — the Regions Plaza and One Jackson Place high-rises reflect these higher standards. Chimneys, mechanical penthouses, antennas, and church steeples are generally exempt up to an additional 15 feet. Clinton's R-1 district also uses 35 feet as the residential ceiling. Planned Unit Developments (PUDs) may negotiate alternative heights through council approval. Variances require a Zoning Board of Adjustment hearing with findings of hardship.
Exceeding height limit: stop-work order. Required to reduce structure or obtain variance. Fines $250 to $2,000.
