Is Seatle Zoned? I can't remember if the Seatle Sourcebook says anything
on the matter ... *checks table of contents* still not sure ... IIRC, New
York is Zoned, but I know Houston isn't and it looks like it will saty
that way ...

I believe they are talking about zoning for use, is it business, residential,
or industrial. The zoning codes are meant to keep people from buying up
houses then building a toxic waste plant next to a school.

I know what they were talking about :) I'm talking about something else
:) which is why I changed the subject line (happy Mongoose? ;) What I'm
asking is, if I whip out the Seatle SB to decide where something is or
where a char lives or somesuch, do I have to worry about if that area is
zoned for that sort of thing? (not that my chars are likely to know or
care but ...)
