Zoning
Garfield County zones its unincorporated land, and Panguitch zones the land inside its limits. ParcelSheet shows the use the county assessor lists for the lot and links the county planning and zoning office for the district, the uses it allows and the lot size it needs.
ADU and guest houses

Whether a Garfield lot can add one depends on its district; the county planning and zoning office has the rule. ParcelSheet shows the mapped lot size and the ground's slope, the first two things the question turns on.
Septic and soil
ParcelSheet reads the USDA soil survey at the lot: the soil's name, its septic absorption rating and whether it is prime farmland. Garfield County is soil survey area UT629, Loa-Marysvale Area, Utah, Parts of Piute, Wayne, and Garfield Counties, last updated September 2026, on Web Soil Survey.
