Which code does this activity belong in?
Administration of Urban Planning and Community and Rural Development covers government establishments that plan and administer the development of urban and rural areas, including the operation of zoning boards and commissions. This differs from Administration of Housing Programs, which focuses on government administration of housing assistance and related residential programs rather than the broader planning and zoning oversight that guides area development.
