If you're planning to build in Çeşme, the first and most important step is checking the zoning status of the land. Zoning determines what type of structure you can build, how many floors, and even roof slope. The zoning plan is prepared by the local municipality and is enforced by the Çeşme Zoning Department. At Küresel İnşaat, we provide professional support services for zoning and permit procedures in Çeşme and Alaçatı. 🗺️ What Determines Zoning Status? Land Use Type: Residential, commercial, agricultural or tourism zone — each has different building permissions. Floor Area Ratio (Taks-Kaks): Taks: Building footprint Kaks: Total construction right E.g., for a 500 m² plot, Taks 0.20 and Kaks 0.40 → 100 m² base, 200 m² total buildable area Building Height and Floors: In protected areas like Alaçatı, max 2 floors are often allowed. Setback Rules: Distance from the plot border to the building — affects design.
