A quick definition of land use:

Land use refers to how people use the land around them. In the past, there were few rules about how land could be used, but as cities grew, governments started making laws to control things like where buildings could be built and what kind of activities could happen on certain pieces of land. Private developers and individuals also play a big role in deciding how land is used. Sometimes, people go to court to settle disputes about land use. There are also federal laws that limit how land can be used to protect the environment and historic sites.

A more thorough explanation:

Land use refers to the way in which land is utilized or developed. It is regulated by federal, state, and local governments through statutory law. Private developers and individuals also play a significant role in controlling land use.

For example, a city government may regulate the use of land within its boundaries to control industry, commerce, and housing. Private entities may also be involved in land use disputes, such as when one neighbor sues another or when individuals share ownership of a particular parcel of land.

Two major federal laws that limit the use of land are the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. These laws aim to protect natural resources and historic sites from development.

Overall, land use is an important aspect of urban and rural development, and it is regulated by a combination of public and private entities to ensure that it is sustainable and beneficial for all parties involved.
